You could lose your mind
Easier than you would like to think
Your best friend could up and leave you
Playing tricks and cold deceive you
Standing there people stare
Let down by your own mind
Day of appreciation
For ways your mind has not yet let you down
The truth is that we will all go
Maybe five minutes after the show
You know you are a shooting star
A blazing flash then gone
Are we advancing
Or a collapsing visionary
Are we really here
Are we imaginary
As my thoughts separates
Into the many frayed parts
Torn shattered bits
My mind falling apart
Are we advancing
Or a collapsing visionary
Are we really here
Are we imaginary
As my thoughts separates
Into the many frayed parts
Torn shattered bits
My mind falling apart
What if there was such a thing
What if there’s such a thing as dependence day
There’s no self congratulation
Just a day of appreciation
Quietly humbly
For things that have not gone wrong
Imagine the frustration
Of losing bearing of the simplest thing
So come with your best
And do your worst before
You can’t remember what you came for
Are we advancing
Or a collapsing visionary
Are we really here
Are we imaginary
As my thoughts separates
Into the many frayed parts
Torn shattered bits
My mind falling apart
Blazing out the mains
Hungry flames consume all that I see
Are we advancing
Or a collapsing visionary
Are we really here
Are we imaginary
As my thoughts separates
Into the many frayed parts
Torn shattered bits
My mind falling apart
Are we advancing
Or a collapsing visionary
Are we really here
Are we imaginary
As my thoughts separates
Into the many frayed parts
Torn shattered bits
My mind falling apart
