"Brain's Night Flights"

Night Flights we embrace,
Morning light we recoil from ourselves,
Pitiful we sneak around the back of those who keep us safe.

Never enough to know if it's love or lust,
But we trust each other.
Who's the one to blame?

You choose your fame over me,
The one who gave you a heart.

Hopelessly devoted I'll throw my life away,
Just for a smile of yours.

I'm not sure of we think alike but I know for a fact,
That the other man's hand isn't enough for you,
He's what you want.

I'm what you need,
A hopeless romantic, a maniac brainiac
A loser is what they call me.

You, you call me my love.
