lyrics

I’m in love with a daffodil,
and I’m woozy when I’m on Seroquel.
Even when I droop, here’s the scoop:
I love you just the same.

I’m in love with a sassafras,
my thoughts loop like a Nascar track.
But when they crash, alack, alas,
I love you just the same.

Because my brain has a lot of thoughts
My thoughts have a lot of feelings
My feelings have a lot of things they like to make me do.
I hope that they don’t hurt you,
But if they leave a mark
Know my brain is not a part of my heart.

Sometimes I talk like a firehose
Sometimes I can’t keep my mouth closed
I criticize.
I overanalyze.
I love you just the same.

Unrealistic expectations
Hypomania fixations
Tunnel vision.
Indecision.
I love you just the same.

Because my brain has a lot of thoughts
My thoughts have a lot of feelings
My feelings have a lot of things they like to make me do.
I hope that they don’t hurt you,
But if they leave a mark
Know my brain is not a part of my heart.

I saw a dog with just three legs,
And I thought “Hey, that’s me
When it comes to my emotional stability.”
But I don’t mind if you don’t mind
Taking me back home.
It’s more important that we don’t
End up all alone!

Because my brain has a lot of thoughts
My thoughts have a lot of feelings
My feelings have a lot of things they like to make me do.
I hope that they don’t hurt you,
But if they leave a mark
Know my brain is not a part of my heart
Know my brain is not a part of my heart
Know my brain is not a part of my heart, heart, heart
