Analysis of Malaise
Maybe you're stunned in a daze
Maybe you're fogged in a haze
Maybe you're lost in a maze
It looks like a malaise
Maybe you're burned in a blaze
Maybe you're fixed in a gaze
Maybe you're set in a ways
It looks like a malaise
Maybe you're caught in a craze
Maybe you're still in a phase
Maybe you're just in a laze
It looks like a malaise
