Crazy Notion

[WES]
I've spent half the night
Confused and frightened
Like a basket case
Wondering how the hell
I ever ended up here in the first place
Got so caught up in trying to find
A reason to run away
It never crossed my mind I'd wanna stay

But you give me a reason to
Chill the fuck out
It's true I hate myself
But I'd hate myself more if you weren't around
I'd berate myself, emotionally castrate myself
I'd self-medicate, hyperventilate, and eventually break down
While you're peacefully sleeping, I'll be stuck weeping
In my padded cell; 'Cause I'm an impossible mess
That no one could possibly fix as well as you

So give me another chance to ruin your life!
I'm a work in progress but I promise I'll try...

To love myself unconditionally
Be a person, not a personality

[PATRICK]
That sounds promising

[WES]
Well, self-awareness is my new thing
'Cause I'm a

[CAST]
Shady bitch

[WES]
Okay! Once in a while
But I promise not to read you
For your retro style

[PATRICK]
You're acting all... romantic
Did you hit your head?

[WES]
It's a crazy notion
I'm not good with emotion
But tonight the rules have been shattered:
Now irony's just a crutch
I don't miss my old life that much
When I'm beside you nothing else matters
I finally know what that feels like

[WES]
We'll hitch a ride in a rowboat together across the bayou

[PATRICK]
Live in the middle of nowhere – population of two

[WES]
And I'll gather wood!

[PATRICK]
I'll learn how to hunt

[WES]
I'll try hard to be a little less of a c–

[PATRICK]
We'll sleep with the wolves in their forest den

[WES]
When you look up at the sky you'll see the stars again
See it all again

[WES & PATRICK]
It's a crazy notion
I'm not good with emotion
But tonight the rules have been shattered

[PATRICK]
The rules have been shattered

[WES]
I don't need bitterness anymore

[WES & PATRICK]
That made up my whole life before
When I'm beside you nothing else matters
I finally know what that feels like

[PATRICK]
If this was a movie it'd end like this
Shot of a sunset, the lovers kiss

[WES]
But this is real
And I feel like the clay spinning on a potter's wheel!

[PATRICK]
Though it was not love at first sight

[WES & PATRICK]
It's our story and the ending's ours to write
And who'd have thought it'd turn out this way?
I don't understand the crazy things that keep happening to me today
You're just another magic unexplained phenomenon
And it's a crazy notion
