If I read into the words, you've written out for me, would, I finally see, you, smile?

Lock myself into a box, and I'd throw away the key, pretend everything's just fine

Chew me up, spit me out, 'till I'm lost, in the crowd

Safe in, your, mind, today, this world, you, can't ignore, wish that I could, live that way, but I need something more

And if I pulled your hands from off your eyes, what would you see?

That it's not all, cut, and, dry

Perspective can't uncover elements that go unseen, turn your blindness into, sight

Close your books, break your mold, thinking thoughts, of your own

Safe in, your, mind, today, this world, you, can't ignore, wish that I could, live that way, but I need something more

I wish (x9), I wish that, I wish, I wish, I wish, I'd tell you, I wish

I wish that I, could buy, into your stagnant state of mind, to walk with insincerity, by following your lead

I wish that I could buy this fantasy, and make it my reality, that I could be, and I believe, but I know I could never be

Safe in, your, mind, today, this world, you, can't ignore, wish that I could, live that way, but I need something, I need something, I need something more
