[Intro]
I thought it was a normal day
Everything felt kinda ordinary
Pile of dirty laundry
It was a little high
See, I talked the same (talked the same)
Walked the same (walked the same)
And it never really dawned on me
That the shadows on my walls
They told the time
[Chorus]
I think I've lost my mind
Is your head sleepy, hollow?
You ain't fine
Unhinged like Frankenstein
Screw loose, and I'm running on borrowed
Time, time, time
[Verse 1]
Yeah, I thought I was okay
Just a little sick of love like Cobain
Felt like an old man
Tired all the time, and grumpy in a funk
And maybe 'cos I went and drunk again
An understatement, I understand
Compliments to the chef
Nonetheless, sick of beef with friends
Sick and tired of being divided
Why did I even waste my breath?
Concerned, I think I went and lost my mind
After one too many mushrooms at Kev's
Forgettin' why I was even angry
In the same breath
Preachin' Gandhi, preachin' all that
Paul McCartney, carried all that
Baggage on me
And I'm sick of feeling not like myself (not like myself)
But then I'll go and follow somebody else
It doesn't make sense, I blame it on the moon
It was everybody else but you
Moon-dance away from all my problems
Smoothest criminal when I will move (Ow!)
And I knew
I was doomed when I started talkin' like Judy
Momma said, "You're only really ever judged
When you feel unworthy"
Most concerning thing, I was either high or smashed
Like chandeliers
'Cos you know me, right?
Can we forget last year?
[Chorus]
I think I've lost my mind
Is your head sleepy, hollow?
You ain't fine
Unhinged like Frankenstein
Screw loose, and I'm running on borrowed
Time, time, time
[Verse 2]
Yeah
Sweet talk
Had the Queen in a bedroom
Nah, I'm talkin' bout a hotel suite
And the size of the bed in the room, I'm still alone
With all these bones to pick (Vulture!)
Every ex-girl in my head (I told ya!)
You expect too much
And Paul, you were hardly impressed
Maybe yes, maybe I'm just like Kanye West (I'ma let you finish)
A little self-obsessed (Okay)
You never see me play famous though
Never see me smoke tailors, no
Slaving over these songs
While they all sound asleep (Oh)
I'm awake all night long
Countin' the same old sheep
[Bridge]
I had this re-occurrent dream
Where I'll fall from heights
Through the sky, to the concrete
Don't follow me
I am not a shepherd nor sheep
I will not lead
I'm a foreigner on unknown streets
Know what you need
And follow me
'Cos
[Chorus]
I think I've lost my mind
Is your head sleepy, hollow?
You ain't fine
Unhinged like Frankenstein
Screw loose, and I'm running on borrowed
Time, time, time
I think I've lost my mind
Little head, sleepy hollow
You ain't fine
Unhinged like Frankenstein
Screw loose, and I'm running on borrowed
Time, time, time

This song came to life out of a lot of time for self-reflection during the infamous year of 2020. Realising I may not have been coping as well as I thought I was and I suddenly felt like I was on the verge of a mental breakdown with all of my inner-dialogue and the discourse that was manifesting aro...
