about

lyrics

Well I go to work each morning
And I do the best I can
My intensions are good
I do what I can for them

But they’re sent here for a reason
They don’t fit outside no more
They’re destined to stay
They can’t get away from here

They’re all so delusional
And so different from you and me
And they’re never getting out of here
They need me

Some are worse and some are better
But none can live alone
Their home is this place
At least they are safe in here

They won’t be leaving in the morning
Or a million mornings more
They can’t get away
They’re put here to stay - away

‘Cuz they’re all so delusional
And they’re not like you or me
And they’re never getting out of here
They need me

They’re too lost to ever find their way
Society has cast them as castaways
Is separation best for them or is it best for us?
Either way they haven’t got a clue

‘Cuz they’re all so delusional
And so different from you and me
And they’re never getting out of here
They need me

They are all so delusional
And they’re not like you or me
And they’re never getting out of here
They need me

They are all so delusional
And so different from you and me
And they’re never getting out of here
They need me

They need me
They need me
They need me
