Attention Deficit Lyrics

I didn't hear a single word you said

I try to pay attention every time you're talking

But my mind it keeps on buzzing

I'm about to lose my head

Dopamine

Temporary motivation

Quickly fleeting, now I'm needing

5-HT

Happy feeling, mental healing

Focused thinking, full night sleeping

Attention deficit, hyperactive mind

Cognitive cognizance

Bright or asinine

A sudden sense of calm

Washes over me

I cannot believe

I can finally keep focus

On your face

Oh, it's so beautiful

It's all I'll ever want

And all I'll ever need

This bliss is artificial

Deep down I know

The joy I feel is superficial

I can quell the fire

Long enough to avoid disaster

But the burns I'm left with after

Leave a mark that I'll remember

Years to come

I can feel it building up

I'm getting lost in all your words

My God, it burns

Where did we come from

And where are we going

What lies out there for us

The unknown

All of these questions

That will never be answered

I have lost my train of thought

What was I going to say

Before I got off track

Side effects may include nausea, paranoia, tachycardia, sudden seizures and instant death

I'm laying in my bed

I'm so overwhelmed and full of dread

The TV's on, but nothing's playing

Please standby, I'm falling asleep

I wake up, afternoon

I slept for twelve hours

I'm still feeling tired

How can this possibly be

I'm still here overthinking

And dwelling on memories

And things that I cannot control

They haunt me, it's daunting

I'm tired of running

I just want control of my soul

Dopamine

Temporary motivation

Quickly fleeting, now I'm needing

5-HT

Happy feeling, mental healing

Focused thinking, full night sleeping

Attention deficit, hyperactive mind

Cognitive cognizance

Bright or asinine
