Thinking of the days gone by
My careless thoughts shy away
From somewhere they don't belong
Fading away
Reaching out for what I behold
Why don't you look in the eyes
And try to understand
Its not so intricate as it seems
What if you look at me
And I'm not here
Am I the same person I've known for years
Or is it someone else in my head
I know sometimes I talk to myself
But don't you too?
When you rest in your solitude
When your mind seems to drift away
From their strange fudgy attitudes
I'm losing my way
In the midst of this hysteria
And if I could
I would
Instill the faith in my paranoid eyes
In my brown and mild eyes
After all these years
I'm still learning your strange ways
and the look in my eyes stays
If I'm not the same person I used to be
Do you think you are?
