Peers
Lost in the Night: A Journey of Mind and Memories
Lyrics
I did plan to speak to you today
I had intended to talk to you today
But we got distracted mid morning wrestling with your brain
We got distracted in the morning dealing with your thoughts
Checked all the X-rays and it seems that I'm okay
Reviewed X-rays, and it appears I'm physically fine
The only issue being now is my minds state of decay
The main issue now is the deteriorating state of my mind
Wish we could jump on a midday flight
Desire to escape with a midday flight
To get away from our dismal life
To break free from our dreary life
Working nine to five
Engaged in a nine-to-five routine
Every other day for the rest of our lives
Working every other day for the foreseeable future
Only time we do anything nice
We only engage in enjoyable activities occasionally
Is from seven on a Friday night
Particularly on Friday nights starting from seven
When the music's blaring and the snare hits tight
Immersed in music with a tight snare, feeling enchanted
Under a spell when the sky seems bright
Spellbound, especially when the sky is bright
You've done too much ket for your head to act right
Experiencing cognitive impairment due to drug use
Think it's quarter to eight and you'll be in bed by nine
Expecting to be in bed early but lost track of time
But it's ten to two on a cold November night
It's much later on a cold November night
You've lost your mind and there's no chance of finding it now
Irreversible loss of sanity, no hope of recovery
I'm losing my way
Feeling disoriented and off course
And I'm racking my mind
Struggling mentally, trying to recollect
Can't remember where I put my keys last night
Unable to recall where I left my keys last night
I thought it was fine and then I woke up here
Thought everything was fine, but woke up in an unfamiliar place
In an unknown place surrounded by no peers
Isolated, without companions or peers
Said I'd talk to you in an hour
Promised to talk later, but your dramatic intentions remained
When your dramatic intentions sour
Your dramatic intentions never faded
But they never did
Never kept the promise to talk
Heard they found you in some shrubs
Rumors circulated about you hiding in shrubs
Tucked up to hide from thugs
Concealing yourself, perhaps from threats
Kicked down by diazepam
Physically harmed, possibly by the use of diazepam
Your only friend apart from them
Diazepam as a coping mechanism, maybe the only friend
All the reasoning and all the fake theories why
Exploring reasons and false explanations for emotions
Why the emotions never truly seem to hide
Emotions persistently exposed, unable to be concealed
Is it that wrong or can I ask why
Questioning the morality of asking why
Finished with this
Declaring an end to the situation
I just bleached it with lies
Ending it with deceit and falsehoods
I'm losing my way
Feeling lost and confused
And I'm racking my mind
Mentally strained, trying to recall
Can't remember where I put my keys last night
Can't find where I left my keys last night
I thought it was fine and then I woke up here
Thought everything was fine, but woke up in an unfamiliar place
In an unknown place surrounded by no peers
Isolated, without companions or peers
I'm losing my way
Feeling lost and confused
And I'm racking my mind
Mentally strained, trying to recall
Can't remember where I put my keys last night
Can't find where I left my keys last night
I thought it was fine and then I woke up here
Thought everything was fine, but woke up in an unfamiliar place
In an unknown place surrounded by no peers
Isolated, without companions or peers
