State of Confusion

I wish I knew where I was going 
But I don't even know where I've been 
If I knew how to find the ending 
I might know where to begin 

I'm not lost I'm just confused 
That's where I think I am 
I know I sound forgetful 
But what if that's the plan 

I make up my mind at least twice a day 
And I can't even make my bed 
That says a lot about me I'm sure 
Or what's lurking inside of my head 

Ok now you can all stop laughing 
And pointing your fingers at me 
I Live in a state of confusion 
And I think I'm happy to be
