[Verse 1]
I lost Thursday
I had it somewhere
Don't say it’s where I left it
I lost Thursday like it was nothing
That fact is uncontested
[Pre-Chorus]
I am sleepy
I'm not strong but it was like any day
Where I left it
Take it back
Now I suspect foul play
[Chorus]
Nights flow right into the next
I'm reading off this text and thinking very fast
This panopticon is full of people sitting still
Until this time has passed
[Verse 2]
It’s supernatural how spaced out we can be
It's supernatural how spaced out we can be
I left Thursday inside your knapsack
Packed in a zipped-up sleeping bag
[Pre-Chorus]
Half the time you're feeling fine
Cool as an amphibian
Half the time you wonder why
We're stuck in this oblivion
[Chorus]
Today was going to be the year I kept a closer watch
Stepped up another notch
Now this post-historic time
My diorama mind is stuck inside this thought
[Verse 3]
It's supernatural how spaced out we can be
I lost Thursday, I had it somewhere
It's supernatural how spaced out we can be
I lost Thursday like it was nothing
Eee-ah
I lost Thursday
Ooooowww
I lost Thursday
[Pre-Chorus]
I am sleepy
I'm not strong but it was like any day
Where I left it
Take it back
Now I suspect foul play
[Chorus]
Nights flow right into the next
I'm reading off this text and thinking very fast
This panopticon is full of people sitting still
Until this time has passed
