smoke alarm
The smoke alarm’s been going off
But nothing round me’s burning
Interrupts my peace and quiet without warning
Don’t know how to stop the ringing
And like that isn’t bad enough,
The home alarm’s been going off, too
Oh, it keeps saying there’s an intruder
But I know that’s just my thoughts of you
They keep breaking and entering
Trying to say something
They claim they’re protecting me, no
They keep breaking and entering
Trying to say something
They claim they’re protecting me, no
The smoke alarm’s been going off
And I think it’s all my fault
The smoke alarm’s been going off
And I need to make it stop
Make it stop
Think I need new batteries
Or maybe a new mentality
‘Cause my reality’s made up of little fallacies
And I get paralyzed when
I overanalyze them
But I just can’t defy them
Believe me, I’ve tried
‘Cause they keep breaking and entering
Trying to say something
They claim they’re protecting me, no
They keep breaking and entering
Trying to say something
They claim they’re protecting me, no
The smoke alarm’s been going off
And I think it’s all my fault
The smoke alarm’s been going off
And it don’t ever stop
It don’t stop
