Glass Box
Living in a Transparent World
Lyrics
I live in a glass box
I exist in a transparent enclosure
I have for some time now
This state has been my reality for a while
And my things and thoughts
My possessions and thoughts are scattered within like a child's
Are strewn around it like a toddler's, ooh
Comparing the disorder to that of a toddler's playfulness
And I can see you waving
I can observe you waving
I can hear you yelling
I can hear your shouts
But I can't hear what you're saying
However, I cannot comprehend your words
And I can move my lips
Although I can move my lips
And I can wiggle my fingertips
And wiggle my fingertips
But inside I'm frozen
Internally, I feel immobilized
I wish I was five years old
I desire to be five years old again
Then I couldn't be told nothin'
At that age, resistance or denial wouldn't affect me
I live in a glass box
Reiteration of living in a transparent enclosure
Its got impact windows
The box has impact-resistant windows
And they're not much to see with
These windows don't offer much visual appeal
And I'm not much to be with right now
Currently, I'm not in an appealing state to be with
But it's a livin'
Despite the challenges, it's a form of existence
But it's a livin'
Repetition emphasizing the nature of living in the glass box
(I'm a weary time traveller)
Expressing weariness as a time traveler
But it's a livin'
Reiteration of the challenges as a time traveler
(I'm a weary time traveller)
Continued emphasis on the challenges of time travel
But it's a livin'
Repeated statement about the difficulties of time travel
(I'm a weary time traveller)
Reiteration of weariness as a time traveler
