Show me how a prison gets made
Slick walls enclosing hope
Show me the gates to paradise
Could be the same building
Depending which way you walk
Show me which way to go
Show me that picture
Of that time in that place
Show me when I was really happy
And everything was perfect
Show me that memory, always
Paints a rosy picture
You only show me how you show me
And it shows
Show me what I'm dying to see
Show it to me eagerly
I ain't from Missouri, I'm from misery
So show me how to set me free
Show the writing on the wall
Show the calm before the squall
Show me when I move in close
How your eyes begin to close
Show me the door, show me the street
Show me the endings incomplete
Show to me the sun and sea
There's so much that you show to me
Show me
Show me
