If ever my reason begins to surface
If ever I find some kind of deeper purpose
... maybe that's the end of me
If my vitals crash and I lose my lunch
Between reruns of M*A*S*H* and the Brady Bunch
... maybe that's the end of me

The boy has lost his mind
The void's not hard to find
The boy has lost his mind

If I base my life living on a hunch
That came to me when I was eating cap'n crunch
... maybe that's the end of me
Well a drowning man is not troubled by the rain
And you don't need blood if you haven't got a vein
... maybe there is no end to me

The boy has lost his mind
The void's not hard to find
The boy has lost his mind

What good is a brain in a place like this? (repeat)

The void is hard to fill
When you still got life to kill
I said the void is hard to feel
When you've still got life to kill

The boy has lost his mind
The void's not hard to find
The boy has lost his mind

Today at school they told us we don't have to think anymore
They said machines think for us
My teacher told me to keep my ideas to myself
She told me not to make my classmates uncomfortable
It's not nice to make other people uncomfortable with your ideas

Just keep your mouth shut

That's the linchpin of the modern paradigm
That's what allows society to function; it's not that hard
There's only 1 cardinal sin the 21st century and that's to make other
People uncomfortable
So just keep your mouth shut, it's pretty easy
You know my father used to tell me there's no better time than the present
Well now day's it's like there's no other time than the present
There's no such thing as the past
There's no such thing as the future
There's just 'now'; so live in the now
It's the right thing to do
This is the social contract
This is the system
And if you don't function
If you're not interchangeable
Then you're 'broken'
You're crazy
