I used yo think
About what's real and true
What can not be proven

What can be $$#umed
Once when I was younger
In the bloom of youth

I received an honest answer
When a lie would do


And now all I do is sit
In my darkened room
And on occasion break my silence

To howl at the moon
To curse every nerve
And neuron in my brain

That won't stop the pain I'm feeling
And let me stop thinking.


I used to think
Galileo would agree
That the world was round

And you'd come round to me
But I have looked for you
And you're nowhere in sight

The world must be flat
The Babylonians were right


And now all I do is sit
In my darkened room
And on occasion break my silence

To howl at the moon
To curse every nerve
And neuron in my brain

That won't stop the pain I'm feeling
And let me stop thinking.


I used to think
Consider gravity
If I placed you on a pedestal

You'd slip and fall for me
But you floated on the air
Far away at light speed

I guess some objects do defy
The laws that we conceive


And now all I do is sit
In my darkened room
And on occasion break my silence

To howl at the moon
To curse every nerve
And neuron in my brain

That won't stop the pain I'm feeling
And let me stop thinking.


Stop thinking of you
I used to think
It took all my time

!@%(ysing you
Your mind on my mind
Your name my mantra

Repeated on my lips
That once tried to kiss you
A memory unrepressed


And now all I do is sit
In my darkened room

And on occasion break my silence
To howl at the moon
To curse every nerve

And neuron in my brain
That won't stop the pain I'm feeling
And let me stop thinking.
