[Intro spoken live audio] So... I know you guys like this song here about teenager long ago we're talking ... about ... You Can't Say I am CRAZY! [Verse 1] He crawled behind the classroom desk Just looking for a quiet place Reached for the nearest book he saw It happened to be a Bible He only wanted time alone But they said he’d lost his mind [Verse 2] He lit up when the lesson turned to stars Told his friends how light takes years to come this far Didn’t see their sideways glance or sigh He thought they'd want to know the reason why But every word just made the whispers grow Now they call him “professor,” like it’s some kind of joke [Chorus] Say I’m crazy, say I pray You were gonna hate me anyway Doesn’t matter what I do You just needed someone to lose [Verse 3] He took a sip at someone’s Friday night They laughed and said, “Hey, maybe you’re all right” For once, the room felt warm instead of cruel So he kept the bottle close and played it cool The silence hurt less drowned in bitter burn A trade he made, too young to know he'd never unlearn [Final Chorus] Call me crazy, call me weak You were never gonna hear me speak Doesn’t matter what I knew I just learned to drink like you You made your point, I played along But it never made me strong [Outro spoken live audio] Thank you! Thank you!
