"Purple" lyrics

"Sometimes it feels like I'm in a dream
Or, a nightmare
But I'm awake
And, I'm doing things but
I'm not meaning to do them
And even though it's a nightmare
I feel happy inside"

I've done some things in my life
That you may think are crazy
A little different from the rest
I get my pleasure from the pain

I've got some ghosts who follow me
They all think I'm crazy
But in the night I know I feel alright

Cause I see spirits all around me
As I try to understand
What makes me do the things I do
To everyone around me
And I bet you never knew
I could have regrets for all the things
That make you see red
But all I see is purple instead

I smile in the face of what's to come
We can hide but we can't run
From the fate we bring upon ourselves

It's just a dream, it's just a dream
But that doesn't mean
My waking life is not a nightmare

Cause I see spirits all around me
As I try to understand
What makes me do the things I do
To everyone around me
And I bet you never knew
I could have regrets for all the things
That make you see red
But all I see is purple instead

This is the end of me...
They got the best of me...
Now justice has been served...
Oh well live and learn

Cause I see spirits all around me
As I try to understand
What makes me do the things I do
To everyone around me
And I bet you never knew
I could have regrets for all the things
That make you see red
But all I see is purple instead
