"I Think I'm Crazy", also registered as "Think I'm Crazy"[2], is a song by Melanie Martinez. It was intended to be the opening track on her extended play[note 1], Take Me to the Moon, however, the project was later scrapped. It was then repurposed for her 2013 EP, which was also eventually scrapped. The version for the 2013 EP leaked on May 17, 2021.
The original version of the song was uploaded to Melanie's YouTube channel on January 15, 2012, with an accompanying music video.
Background[]
A live performance of the song was posted to Melanie's YouTube channel on December 30, 2011, with the Take Me to the Moon version being released the following month. The song was later re-recorded for Melanie's 2013 EP, although it's likely the song was scrapped from the EP prior to the EP itself being scrapped.[3]
Theme[]
This song was written for Melanie's boyfriend at the time, Vinnie DiCarlo. It is about her love for him and that she knows that he loves her back in the same way and they would never cheat on each other.
Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Baby, I think I'm crazy over you
Give the stars and the moon and I know that you would too
My eyes begin to widen when you walk in the room
My face lights up and it's apparent that I'm falling for you
[Chorus]
I'm tangled in a nest deep down in your heart
I'm breathing through your lungs, want to spend this time apart
And I don't want to start
[Verse 2]
Baby, I know I'm crazy over you
I'd give you the world and you're the only one I'd give it to
I won't break my promise and I'm aware that neither will you
Pinky promised on forever and forever is what I shall do
[Chorus]
I'm tangled in a nest deep down in your heart
I'm breathing through your lungs, want to spend this time apart
And I don't want to start
I don't want to start
I'm tangled in a nest deep down in your heart
I'm breathing through your lungs, want to spend this time apart
And I don't want to start
[Verse 1]
Baby, I think I'm crazy over you
Give the stars and the moon and I know that you would too
My eyes begin to widen when you walk in the room
My face lights up and it's apparent that I'm falling for you
[Chorus]
Tangled in a nest deep down in your heart
I'm breathing through your lungs, want to spend this time apart
And I don't want to start
[Verse 2]
Baby, I know I'm crazy over you
I'd give you the world and you're the only one I'd give it to
Don't break my promise and I'm aware that neither will you
Pinky promised on forever and forever is what I shall do
[Chorus]
Tangled in a nest deep down in your heart
I'm breathing through your lungs, want to spend this time apart
And I don't want to start
I don't want to start
[Outro]
Don't break my promise and I'm aware that neither will you
Pinky promised on forever and forever is what I shall do
[Verse 1]
Baby, I think I'm crazy over you
Give the stars and the moon and I know that you would too
My eyes begin to widen when you walk in the room
My face lights up and it's apparent that I'm falling for you
[Chorus]
I'm tangled in a nest deep down in your heart
I'm breathing through your lungs, want to spend this time apart
And I don't want to start
[Verse 2]
Baby, I know I'm crazy over you
I'd give you the world and you're the only one I'd give it to
I won't break my promise and I'm aware that neither will you
Pinky promised on forever and forever is what I shall do
[Chorus]
I'm tangled in a nest deep down in your heart
I'm breathing through your lungs, want to spend this time apart
And I don't want to start
I don't want to start
I'm tangled in a nest deep down in your heart
I'm breathing through your lungs, want to spend this time apart
And I don't want to start
[Verse 1]
Baby, I think I'm crazy over you
Give the stars and the moon and I know that you would too
My eyes begin to widen when you walk in the room
My face lights up and it's apparent that I'm falling for you
[Chorus]
Tangled in a nest deep down in your heart
I'm breathing through your lungs, want to spend this time apart
And I don't want to start
[Verse 2]
Baby, I know I'm crazy over you
I'd give you the world and you're the only one I'd give it to
Don't break my promise and I'm aware that neither will you
Pinky promised on forever and forever is what I shall do
[Chorus]
Tangled in a nest deep down in your heart
I'm breathing through your lungs, want to spend this time apart
And I don't want to start
I don't want to start
[Outro]
Don't break my promise and I'm aware that neither will you
Pinky promised on forever and forever is what I shall do

These include the number of tracks, the lengths of these tracks, and the overall context surrounding its release. These elements collectively point to it being an EP rather than a full-length album.
