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
