Has everyone lost their minds,

Or is it just me?

A short while ago,

I believed none of this would ever change.

Boy, was I wrong.

Everything and everyone I'd thought would always be there,

suddenly shifted drastically and left me wondering whether I was the right way up.



Has everyone gone insane,

or is it just me?

Things being planned; why doesn't anyone tell me?

I know anyway - the walls have ears, didn't you know?

Going on without me.

Everything's so different, I don't think I can handle another change.



Has everyone lost the little sense they had left,

or is it just me?

Everything I say is taken the wrong way.

I used to think back to old times - everyone thought I'd lost it.

Now they're encouraging me to do it.

What do I look like?  A puppet?

I thought I was the one accused of living in the past.

I want to remember - they make me forget.

I want to forget, they make me remember.

It's a wonder I'm still sane. (or am I?)



Maybe losing your mind is normal now.

Maybe being insane is okay.

And maybe making no sense is the right thing to do.

Maybe.  Or is it just me?
