Maybe I'm just deraged and on the rebound
Maybe love was the thing holding me back from all
Maybe I'm just the thing to break my own fall

Maybe departure's good
Makes room for more start
To mass produce for a chance to ignore
Maybe you'll kill yourself before you get a turn Maybe i'll fall in love and never learn
