Lyrics:

The cave of your cranium, it echoes, echoes, echoes like an asylum
You behave like you’re not one of them but it only goes to show how hard it is to pretend

I’ll only stop to chat if no one’s listening
You don’t always have to fill the cup you’re pissing in

Wide-eyed closet lunatic
Looking for a quick and easy fix
Just dying to exist
As a closet lunatic 

You’re wasting your pale complexion,
dressed up in debt for the show,
snug and bundled up against the cold
A looney tune tamed by those wild speculations,
the pest’s out and on patrol,
fit and armed to the teeth to defend

I keep my thoughts in my pocket cause seven out of eight they disintegrate,
when you measure them up they’re not worth their wait
and every time I contemplate it’s of no use, it’s of no use

I’m a closet lunatic
Looking for a quick and easy fix
Just dying to exist
As a closet lunatic

Underneath your goodie two shoes is a dirty pair of socks that you’re never gonna wash
You never could quite bite the bullet, you just sink into your bed with a belly full of lead woes

I always forget what this song is called and the name of this song slowly came back in parts one by one until I finally got to the “wide eyed closeettt luunnnnaticcc”
