Diminished Lyrics
Days confused
Ruined by a past you hardly knew
They frost in your eyes
Irritated streams on others lost
These memories it seems
Cause cracks and one gets unglued
These tendrils proceed
To strangle her reason, too
Held apart
Every time is lost
But maybe once in a while
You'll catch 'em
When all the walls are bricks
And all the racing's fixed
You'll change expression
Damned if you
Didn't hide your face
I'm sure they knew
When thoughts cross your heart
Bypass all the strain of being you
When most people dream
Their subconscious locks on you
You're wrapped in your scene
A blanket of things you drew
Don't be frightened
Someone caught you napping
A knock at the door in advance
Didn't help this time
Every Sunday you look out the window
To count the tracks in the snow
Till they get back
Should it be so hard to have a nice day?
Should it be so hard to have a nice time?
Don't feel so worthless in the meanwhile
Ruined by a past you hardly knew
They frost in your eyes
Irritated streams on others lost
These memories it seems
Cause cracks and one gets unglued
These tendrils proceed
To strangle her reason, too
Every time is lost
But maybe once in a while
You'll catch 'em
And all the racing's fixed
You'll change expression
Didn't hide your face
I'm sure they knew
When thoughts cross your heart
Bypass all the strain of being you
Their subconscious locks on you
You're wrapped in your scene
A blanket of things you drew
Someone caught you napping
A knock at the door in advance
Didn't help this time
To count the tracks in the snow
Till they get back
Should it be so hard to have a nice time?
Don't feel so worthless in the meanwhile

Well, I had a more eloquent interpretation but it was lost and I'm out of both time and patience. Here's what I think:
It's about depression, sorrow, or drug addiction, causing a person to allow their life to waste away. Something is "diminishing" this person.
"Should it be so hard to have a nice day?"
