Irrational Disposition

from Irrational Disposition album

This song is about finally trusting someone and letting go of an irrational disposition caused by previous hurts. 

Welcome to my world and hold on tight.

It might be a bumpy ride.

Don't try to make sense of my brain tonight.

Things are spinning and there's something in the dark

waiting to grab me if I ever let my guard down.

I know it's gonna get me.

 

I'm suffering with an irrational disposition.

I'm suffering with an irrational disposition.

 

Look at the beautiful wall I built,

every brick made from anger and guilt

and the thought that I'm impossible to love.

You can try to climb it if you like.

Brick by brick and you might see the light

at the end of the tunnel

Don't you know that I'm waiting.

I'm waiting here with an...

 

Irrational Disposition

something I can lean on when everything is going well.

I'm suffering with an irrational disposition.

Welcome to my hell.

 

Then I hear you tell me that you love me

and a brick comes down

Can you hear the crumple in the mortar?

such a  wonderful sound!

Give me a sign, give me a secret symbol,

and I'll let my hair down from this watchtower.

 

So, welcome to my world and give the wheel a spin.

Pick black or red and the blue will win,

But when I feel love, I feel it forever.

The guests are here and it's about time.

I've got you with me and I'm feeling fine.

I'll be the first to tell you that I'm crazy,

but I'm letting go. I'm letting go of this...

 

Irrational disposition

something I could lean on when everything was going well.

An irrational disposition

I think it's time to tell it goodbye.
