Never seemed quite what it used to seem

Wasn't sure, it was never quite clear
What the hell was happening all around here
Never seemed to make much sense
All that fuss for just a lack of common sense

Cannot be all that it used to be
You're not as quiet as you used to be

What did you seem
What did you mean
