I stopped caring today
I hung my head
And I faded away.

Everyone went transparent
They raised their heads
Smiled,
I couldn’t bear to watch.

Their eyes seemed hollow,
The laughter strained,
It hurt,
This was so normal,
Another day at the playground.

See I stopped caring today
It scared me
But that’s all I’ll say.
To you anyway.

I shedded that girl,
And now this skin is thin,
And now I lost my strength,
See I couldn’t lift my head again.

I stopped caring today.
And yesterday,
And the day before that,
And now I fear tomorrow.

I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. - Gary Jules, Mad World.
