Lyrics and translation
Original
Hiding what I'm seeking, with open eyes I'm sleeping.
I can't make out the words that they've written on the ceiling.
Tried to drink the Kool-Aid, failed to tie my shoelace.
I keep running but I'm too late, I hate living in the new age.
No more TV wars, I wanna hear the neighbor's backyard talks to lose the ringing in my ear.
Is it my imagination?
Is it only in my head?
Is it my imagination?
Is it only in my head?
Scratches on my wings and the words I try to sing, they're slowly losing sense and I'm just shouting in the wind. I'm muting the commercials, but I'm still watching the circus.
I thought that I'd be ready, I thought you were the rehearsal, but no.
This is my imagination.
This is only in my head.
This is my imagination.
This is only in my head.
I'm never gonna find what I seek. I'm never gonna walk while I sleep.
Not gonna waste the air in my lungs. Not gonna lose the ringing in my ear.
No wasting time giving you a speech, the only one who knows what I mean is me.
This is my imagination.
This is only in my head.
This is my imagination.
This is only in my head.
