Friendly Hallucinations (Explicit)

Can you hear the whispers of an innocent ignorant child?
In the ocean get to swimmin' or drown
How long has it been since you smiled?
Girl I love the way your body fit inside that gown
Her Mama was a lady bug her Papa was an atheist
Workin' on a novel set in Cold War Romania
Chasin' love idolizin' Joan of Arcadia
Pray the landscapers don't wake her up
I'm a slave to the bass line
Conversation topic got us tangled in the grape vine
Still wide awake I'm a stranger to the daytime
Vampire higher than a hang glider
Look around and all I see is gray skies
There's help inside that medicine cabinet
Came in for the answers but she left with a habit
There's no one on the other end of that telephone
Let's fall asleep to the metronome yeah
She's fallin' for her hallucinations
But what's love without imagination?
Yeah
Baby don't let them tell you what's real and what's not
There's a paradise waiting on the other side of the dock woah
It's only real if it's real to you
Does it feel?
It's only real if it's real to you
Is it real?
It's only real if it's real to you
Said what's it feel like?
Yeah
Tell me is it real if you can't hold it in your arms but it can touch you?
Feel its texture pressin' up against your chest you say "I love you"
You don't hear it back
Fallin' victim to a world that's filled with satire Mark Twain admired
Open Tom Sawyer read a passage to the cab driver
She only in the back seat of a taxi 'cause her car is in the shop with a flat tire
Mom say she believe her but she always been a bad liar
Had a plan to burn her past but it backfired
Hold on and be strong kneel before your king
The land you put your knees on it won't be long 'til your path finds ya
And if love is just a fantasy then what's the problem if you fall in love with fantasy?
They assume she's confused with delusions she's creatin'
In the waitin' room for psychiatric evaluation
She doesn't have the patience to be treated like a patient
It'll be okay if she just swallow this pill
Fallin' for her hallucinations
What's love without imagination?
Yeah
Baby don't let them tell you what's real and what's not
There's a paradise waiting on the other side of the dock woah
It's only real if it's real to you
It's only real if it's real to you
It's only real if it's real to you
Yes yes y'all
Havin' conversations with friendly hallucinations
I'll be havin' conversations with friendly hallucinations
They don't need no explanation there is beauty in creation my Lord
Havin' conversations with friendly hallucinations
I'll be havin' conversations with friendly hallucinations
They don't need no explanation there is beauty in creation my Lord
My Lord
Fallin' for her hallucinations
What's love without imagination?
Yeah
Baby don't let them tell you what's real and what's not
There's a paradise waiting on the other side of the dock woah
It's only real if it's real to you
It's only real if it's real to you
It's only real if it's real to you
