Trapped in the box you put yourself in
With patterns of behavior predetermined
To make your life feel as if it has
Some unique purpose, a deeper meaning
Stare at your walls until anew
Stare at your walls until they move
Something new in you
Are you fulfilled?
What do you contribute?
What part do you play?
What more do you know?
Trapped in the box you put yourself in
With patterns of behavior predetermined
To make life more simple
Avoiding any question or lack of control
So stare at your words until anew
The issue's how you'd spend
Your finite resources
On a doctrine of words
Thousands of years old
This Infallible source
Still shaping moral course
Imposing limits
Which love is real love
And who earns it
As for your divine reward
Driven by fear and scorn
You'll be forgiven
You'll always owe more
Than you were born worth
