This song is told from the perspective of a man slowly losing himself in a world that is moving without him. It’s illustrated almost as a love song, with lyrics like “You’re all that I have, I won’t let you go,” and “When you swore to be true, our bed was belief.”
[Verse 1]
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?"
[Pre-Chorus]
And am I losing
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
When you swore to be true (Ooh, ooh)
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
[Pre-Chorus]
Never doubting
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
Sometimes there's no sane reason
For optimism
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
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
