Obsession

 

I was thinking at the time you were an obsession.

It doesn’t bother me that much

And I figured at the time you were just an extension

And I think I think too much

 

I’m dreaming for a room I can’t escape

Where I can venture any time or place

I’m wishing that these thoughts will pass in time

I’m hoping that some day you’ll be mine

 

Cuz I was waiting for life, I was waiting for adventure

Was that ever a shock?

I was waiting for a key that would put me in the center

But there’s nothing to unlock

 

And maybe I’ll get you out of my hair

But I can’t seem to get you out of my head

It’s only a childhood fantasy of sorts

Direct me to the nearest F.A.O. Schwartz

 

Cuz I’m looking for a doll with your image on it

So I can stuff it in your ear

But I’m still locked up in a high school detention

One that will last me two years

 

I’m dreaming for a room I can’t escape

Where I can venture any time or place

I’m wishing that these thoughts will pass in time

I’m hoping that some day you’ll be mine

 

And I’m thinking of a word I can’t define

Cuz people say all good things pass in time

I’m working on a silence I can create

To pull me out of this sorry state

 

So even if all things drift away

I cross my heart, I am here to stay
