My Sanity

When the world has gone mad

And there's nowhere to roam

The lights are all on

But nobody's home

There comes a time

When you look up to the sky

And ask, "Why do my favorite songs

Always make me cry?"

And am I losing

My sanity, my sanity

I've nothing to lose, so please let me be

I've got a firm grip, and strong roots like a tree

Burrowed deep in reality

I won't let you go, what else can there be?

You're all I have

When you swore to be true

Our bed was belief

But alternative facts

Snuck in like a thief

There comes a time

To release the cord of self

And with confidence, declare your state of perfect mental health

Never doubting

My sanity, my sanity

I've nothing to lose, so please let me be

My life is a song, a short melody

Harmonizing with reality

I've got it real bad, there's no remedy

You're all I have

My dear sanity

Sometimes there's no sane reason

For optimism

Oh, my sanity, my sanity

I've nothing to lose, so please let me be

My life is a song, a short melody

Harmonizing with reality

I've got it real bad, there's no remedy

My world picture is exemplary

I won't let you go, what else can there be?

You're all I have

My dear sanity
