lyrics

I've been watching you such a long time
It didn't take much time to notice something's wrong
Watching little people that no one else can see
And humming to the melody of your very own song

I've been quite convinced you've gone over the edge
There's a screw or two that's loose inside your head
It may have been, now and then, the little things I've said
But I think it was my love that was the shove off the deep end

You're off the deep end
Your head was never on too tight anyway
Now you're just a ward of the state on the 23rd floor
Locked up behind a padded door
Everyone thought you were crazy
But now we're sure that you're off the deep end

The doctors finally came to get you
They should have been here when you tried to overdose
I wish that I could hear that song you've been humming to
Out of all the things you've lost I miss your mind the most

You look quite beautiful in that plain white vest
I'm sure you haven't noticed the sleeves are extra long
Maybe one day, when the moon is full, I'll join you
But as for now I think they've got you right where you belong

You're off the deep end
Your elevator never reached the highest floor
Now all your marbles are gone and your life is a wreck
One card short of a full deck
Everyone thought you were crazy
But now we're sure that you're off the deep end
Your head was never on too tight anyway
Now you're just a ward of the state on the 23rd floor
Locked up behind a padded door
Everyone thought you were crazy
But now we're sure that you're off the deep end
