i woke one morning and the word was out
i found my mind was spattered all in pieces on the ground
the town was empty and forgotten were the days
my mind was floating in an empty cage
i heard it on the news
all signs were set for me to choose
i'd give my life to get it back
the monkey finally lost the track
mine - was it really mine
see me lie there
did i have the time
some time to find me here
was it really mine
see me lie there
did i have the time?
somebody told me now you're free to fly
to go wherever i'd decide
but i've got that feeling nothing good is gonna come
everything is changing but am i gonna find someone
i heard it on the news
all signs were up for me to choose
i'd give a fuck to get it back
the monkey's finally off my back
i've lost all i've had
i will not see what i've had
