Hala-X - Dimentia lyrics

How old am I? [Verse 1] I think I'm twenty two, but I feel like eighty seven I must be aging quickly. Maybe soon I'll be in heaven I don't know where I'm at and I hate this situation They won't let me go home. It feels like I'm locked in prison I'm stuck here all alone. No, wait! There's another person I recognize his face. I must remember him from something I don't know who he is, but I know his name is Jacob I ask him who he is and he tells me he's my grandson Okay. I guess I have a grandson, unless of course, he's lying But what about my parents? I don't remember either of them dying I really want to see them. I miss them so much I'm almost crying But I never get to go out. I just sit here remembering and sighing I'm fed up with living like this. I just want to go home But I don't even know where this is and I can't find my way on my own I ask Jacob if he can take me home, but all he does is say "no." I ask him "Why not?" and he tells me that I'm already home What? Does he think that I'm stupid? I'd know home when I see it I'm just about throwing a fit, because I'm feeling so desperate He says I have to stay here for the night. I guess that might be alright But somebody had better be ready to drive me home as soon as it's light [Hook] Do you want to know the problem with the elderly these days? They get dementia and all messed up in their brains Do you want to know the problem with living into your eighties? You get forgetful and maybe get Alzheimer's disease [Verse 2] Okay. I'm still here and it's another typical day I still don't have any way for me to get away This is like some kind of solitary confinement I'm fed up with everything being so lonely and silent I'm determined to get home or at least get out of here I don't even know the way, but I don't even really care Because I really just want to get away from this place I'm seriously starting to get extremely fed up with this place There are still some people here. I think that one of them might be my grandma Maybe they can help me out. Maybe they can help me fix this dilemma I tell them it's time to go home. We better pack up and leave here soon It's already the late afternoon and it'll be dark outside here soon They tell that we have to stay here for yet another night No! I don't think so. Somehow, I'm getting out of here tonight I'm already putting on my shoes and coat and I'm about to head out Don't get in my way or argue with me, because I don't want to have to shout Finally, somebody offers to drive me away. Well, it's about time I guess that everything might actually turn out to be just fine We drive a couple of miles and go around the block a couple of times We pull back into the same place we came from, but I'm actually home this time [Hook] I'm confused [Verse 3] Something is definitely wrong here, but I can't quite put my finger on it It's a mystery that's driving me crazy and I can't seem to solve it Maybe I should hire a detective, but I don't even know what's wrong I just know that something isn't right and it's been this way for too long I don't even know what it is, but there's some kind of a problem or something I've got a strong feeling that there's something wrong with this situation It's one of those feelings that there's something fishing going on around here I don't think I'm even supposed to be here at all, but I can't figure out where I'm supposed to be at right now, so I guess that I'm stuck here I've got to figure out where I should be, because I know I'm not there I've got to find out where I should go, so that I can be headed out But my head's full of doubt about this and I'm so mad that I could shout I feel like I'm about to go insane, because I can't wrap my brain Around this situation that I'm in again and I don't like to complain But I think I'm going crazy and I'm definitely losing it mentally Something is wrong with this place and it absolutely can't be just me I can't be making a mistake. I've got this feeling of certainty As well as a feeling of urgency, that we need to do something quickly But I don't know exactly what the problem is and it's really bothering me I've got to get out of this position, before I succumb to insanity 2[hook]
