A Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Waste
A mind is terrible thing to waste
Millions of thoughts running around in haste
Always thinking of things to do or say
Mentally formatting our sentences with the proper words to pray
I’ve been told to use it
Or you will most certainly lose it
Mental Illness so far away from the base of its home
Internal torture to the mind’s dreadful thoughts as they roam
Medicine assistance puts the mind back on its path
Beautiful thoughts regenerated and not damaged by the grimness of the mind’s wrath
I cannot think straight today
My mind does not want to come out and play
I’m feeling blue
I think I have the brain Flu
Am I losing my mind
I cannot comprehend things from time-to-time
Your familiar face I cannot quite remember
Is it August or is it September
Who are you
My mind feels stuck like glue
I cannot process my thoughts
A dense fog of memories strangled when caught
Dementia or Alzheimer as it’s called
I’ve been there, seen it, and have saw
A painful truth for any family once it’s admitted
Choices dancing in the mind to have this wonderful person committed
Pulling out mementos and old pictures
Praying the mind will renew of its old recognizable fixtures
A deterioration of the mind sure to shrivel in course
A host of lost memories such a sadden remorse
The mind is a vast realm to think of the past
Daydreaming is a trance state that does not last
An idle mind for the moment has surpassed
At times off balance
Nothing heard but silence
Yes it sleeps
Subconsciously who does it meet
Mr. Dreams
Here I am
I’ll comfort the mind as best as I can
A vivid illusion played on the screen of my mind
Placing me in a land way before time
I can remember I was being crowned a Queen
I awaken
Still slightly shaken
A riveting tale unforeseen
Ooh the mind can be so mean
I looked around realizing my mind was playing tricks on me
How great if it could only be
Queen for all time, the emotions feels so right
Not just through the night
I love the feeling from such a beautiful mindful sight
The splendid concept of the mind
Always thinking out the blue at times
Thinking of words to tease
Pleasing, while keeping them on their knees
Play memory games to see who’ll beat
In those moments your mind against yourself, always a tie, no rewarding defeat
Millions of thoughts running around in haste
Always thinking of things to do or say
Mentally formatting our sentences with the proper words to pray
I’ve been told to use it
Or you will most certainly lose it
Mental Illness so far away from the base of its home
