dimentia - jacob nash 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

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 succ-mb to insanity
