What It's About:

The narrator is sitting home alone, extremely depressed; he feels isolated and he's growing increasingly desperate. He is beginning to believe that the girl of his dreams is only in his imagination.

Lyrics:

Suffering in silence, got the curtains closed.
A candle flickers, makes your shadow tall.
It dances but you're sitting still, time to kill.
You feel that no one loves you, no one ever will.
'Cause no one ever phones.
And if they did, you don't know what you'd say.
Can't communicate, too late to turn back now.

Now now. There there. It's just a passing phase.
It's just a passing phase
that's lasting much too long for comfort.
You've fought battles in your past but none as hard as this.
You're missing out. You're reaching out
for someone's helping hand.

But she's not there.
'Cause she's existing only in your head.
In your head. In your head. In your head.
In your head. In your cranium.
