He woke up in the morning
And felt like trying something real
Didn't quite know what he wanted
So he tried being him
They say he used to be affective
And attentive and protective
But now he seems
Just a little bit off

You never really knew me
So what do you care if I change from time to time?
Looking at you
I see more than I should
Now that I've lost my mind

They say he was quite energetic
So polite and sympathetic
But now it looks
Like he has lost his game
Now it's a matter of perspective
Cause that's just how he chose to play
Life appears to be much easier
When you don't care what people say

You never really knew me
So what do you care if I change from time to time?
Looking at you
I see more than I ever could
Now that I've lost my mind

And yet the moral of this story
As they take him away:
Is that freeing your mind
Ain't as free as they say
