Oh God, I think I feel a change in me
I don't feel too good, but I don't feel like I'm dying
Dear God, there's been a change in me
I hear a call out from nowhere and everywhere
as if the earth was opening its mouth and screaming
I think my meds are working now
Oh my junglist boyfriend drives a Cadillac
And he's pretty nice to look at, I think I'm finally
Normal now
Yeah I'm feeling pretty normal now
I light his cigarettes from the passenger seat
My sunglasses provide the world in an affect of amber glow
Could everything be this warm forever
And my normalcy is spreading, this is the summer of normalcy forever
Even the Reaper project file of this song
Is crying out to me in ecstasy
Oh wanting to live, oh wanting to try
These were things I didn't know were options
Until I almost died
Lithium carbonate coursing through my blood
How long it's been since I've felt this good
And normal now
I'm really normal now
The spring is coming, the beautiful spring
Took a long time to come, but now it's here
Oh the light and sound
and texture and color of everything
I know this feeling won't last forever
But after I think that, I think whatever
Cuz we're here right now, and my meds they're working now

You got your new girlfriend, and that's good
You know I really mean it
I know I don't sound sincere when I say things but really I do
Cuz I just want the best for you
You're a real superstar now, and that's true
You know I wouldn't be the
You know I wouldn't be the person I am today without you.
And I'm done trying to proselytize, the best thing I can try
To do is wish nothing but the best to you
Oh I know we ain't talkin no more, and you probably won't hear this song
But this is my way of saying I care about you
You know as well as me, I wear my influences on my sleeve, but
I ain't like my heroes, I know when I'm in the wrong
I know when I've really hurt someone without meaning to
I've made a real embarrassment of myself over the last few months
And I hope you don't hear this and think it isn't genuine
Or just another act of bitter cruelty, I just have no other way of telling you that
I just want you to be happy
In an ideal world we'd all be friends forever
But no one can be friends forever
All I want is for you to be happy
I'm sorry for being a neurotic freak with a victim complex
You just mean a lot to me and you always will
You know some people only come into your life for a short while
And these people that only come for a short while
They have the potential to change everything
