If I am beside myself
Then I am two
I don’t know why it is
I don’t know who
Who is beside me
And why are they sad
Who is this person
They are quite mad
Get behind me Satan
I don’t want you near
No tortured soul
Can loiter here
If I am beside myself
I want it all good
The person will be kind
And does what it should
Who is this being
Please go away
Unless you can hug me
I don’t want you to stay
Unless you can comfort
Unless you can smile
I need you to go
And run for a while
If I’m beside myself
I need them to love
No war is allowed here
Just the peace of a dove
So if you are twin
And you won’t go away
I have to accept
All of yesterday
I’ll make amends
Who is this that dares
You won’t go away
So I need you to care
I need you to merge
You can’t be beside me
You’re freaking me out
I need you to leave me
I won’t be beside myself
There’s no room anymore
There’s only space
For one on this floor
Time to melt into one
I got you sussed
This town ain’t big enough
For the both of us.
