I HAD TO GO CRAZY SO I COULD STAY SANE – Johnny Crashed
I was your daddy
I was your boy
You were my reckoning
You were my toy
I was your preacher
I was your saint
I was your problem
But you were to blame
And nothing’s as painful
As a promise betrayed
And you couldn’t stop bludgeoning me
And nobody asked me (And each time you asked me)
But if I had to explain
I had to go crazy
So I could stay sane
One day you love her
Then you don’t
One day you’ll die for her
The next day you won’t
She was my Prozac
I was her Id
She was my Nancy
And I was her Syd
You were my angel
(You know) The one that fell
You were my Judas
When it all went to hell
You were my siren
I was your pet
You were the knife
Held up to my neck
I was your daddy
I was your boy
You were my reckoning
You were my toy
I was your preacher
I was your saint
I was your problem
But you were to blame
And nothing’s as painful
As a promise betrayed
And you couldn’t stop bludgeoning me
And nobody asked me (And each time you asked me)
But if I had to explain
I had to go crazy
So I could stay sane
One day you love her
Then you don’t
One day you’ll die for her
The next day you won’t
She was my Prozac
I was her Id
She was my Nancy
And I was her Syd
You were my angel
(You know) The one that fell
You were my Judas
When it all went to hell
You were my siren
I was your pet
You were the knife
Held up to my neck
