The foundation I’m built on just isn’t quite right,
Something, somehow, got shifted along the way,
Now my days have turned as dark as endless night.

I can’t recall just when I lost sight
Of the simple beauty of a cool spring day,
The foundation I’m built on just isn’t quite right.

What lapse of mine led to this desperate plight?
Life certainly wasn’t always in such disarray.
Now my days have turned as dark as endless night.

The doctor’s office has lights harshly bright,
And they won’t tell me but they want to say
The foundation I’m built on just isn’t quite right.

I tried to fight the shift with all of my might,
But that wasn’t enough once things began to decay,
Now my days have turned as dark as endless night.

And now the darkness feels like light,
Piece by jagged piece, I was chipped away.
The foundation I’m built on just isn’t quite right.
Now my days have turned as dark as endless night.
