You Can't Argue With Crazy

I was in the park
Battery, to be exact
Right outside the 
Police Station
When the crazy man started to talk
He got in an argument with a pothead
And the Mari man tried to defend his point
Our point
But you can't be straightforward when you're tripping
I watched from a distance
Crazy man walked up to me
I didn't back down
I'm very used to crazy
I asked
Sir.
Would you mind if I shared some of my points?
He nodded
I articulated the argument well
I know so
But you can't win against crazy
So I decided to listen
You can learn something from everybody
Even if what you're learning isn't what they're saying.

    It was just a fluke that I happened to see

    The ghost of a girl in 1893

    I didn't think much of her, tried to ignore

    But then she came 'round in 1894

    A spirit was not something that I had wanted

  • Papercuts

    Did you know that, when you wrote me, I was made of papercuts

    That I was ink and glue and wax but mostly, I was papercuts

    Did you know that, when you read me, I am made of memories
