He. [Music] Did not see. Bye. [Music] Hello, neighbor. Glad that you could drop by, but it's a bad time, and I'm a little tied up at the moment. So if you leave me alone and say goodbye, I won't ask about your wandering eye. Sorry, I can't come to the door for more. I feel like we barely see each other, and you're only next door. Did you try to say hello before? I miss me. I assure you nothing's wrong. I've just been very busy. What's to be done in such little time? It's enough to make somebody crumble and done if they stumble to outrun their mind. Look at me mumbling. You're getting impatient. Well, why don't you come in? Show you the basement. What are you spying for? I'm just curious. What are you lying for? It makes me furious. Oh, you shouldn't have come looking for trouble. Don't struggle. Hold on. Let me get my shovels. I'm a brainiac. I'm on the edge. They're calling me a maniac. I'm on the ledge. Who knows which way I may react? Apostle of the technical, erecting the impossible, a feat of engineering veering into disarray. The way that every memory is sending me to a place where every friend of me is my enemy. Retrace the steps I went on that dismember me. Can I build a machine that can filter the screams in my head? Can I scheme in between all the themes of the dreams of the dead? I have lost all that I am willing to lose. Got me confused. Got me on hands. Paranoid that I will lose the boy and you will win. My mind is a museum. Every painting is a scar. They're calling me extreme, but what the hell does that make what they are? I'm chasing shadows in the dark. I'm chasing all the fallen feathers in the park. The raven saying nevermore. They're paving over secrets held forevermore. I'll master hell, so what do I need heaven? That's all I know by his eyes. [Music]
