Over deze songtekst:
Sylvia is Sylvia Plath, een dichteres die het gedicht Mad Girl's Love Song schreef. Het lied verwijst naar dit gedicht.
Het lied gaat over een meisje dat wil ontsnappen aan de saaiheid van het leven. Zij sluit haar ogen en maakt haar eigen fantasie wereld. Van het echte leven weet ze niets, maar wat maakt het uit? Ze heeft haar eigen droomwereld!

I really don't have a clue If by the end of the day Happy fool I salute For what I'm about to receive May the lord make me true- -ly thankful, then I'll believe Any crap, any cue I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead Sylvia says I lift my lids and all is born again Sylvia says I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead Sylvia says I lift my lids and all is born again Sylvia says
