I always imagined it as ( ) holding. Backbones, spines you know?

What bugs ME about the chorus is the lapse in sentences/sense:

when you're holding me we make a pair of parentheses
there's plenty of space to encase whatever weird way my mind goes i know i'll be safe in your arms

so what is it:

there's plenty of space to encase/
whatever weird way my mind goes, i know i'll be safe in these arms

IF so, then encase WHAT? That's a dropoff if I ever heard one.

OR IS IT:

There's plenty of space to encase whatever weird way my mind goes/
i know I'll be safe in these arms.

Which just seems somewhat non sequitur.
