Take a look around, neverending, time is passing
Everybody moves with an automatic ignorance,
I'm nothing but a shell, hollowed open, living like a
Doll without its strings, yet I can't get free, so
If I never move, if I stand here motionless
My time would carry on, even if I never understand
So slowly I will change, moving forward, endlessly
I'm nothing but myself, but it's fine with me, so

Tell me how to dream, how to make it disappear
Can you hear the words I say? Will they ever reach your ears?
I'm so sick of being sad, I'm so sick of feeling mad
Maybe giving it away, feeling nothing would be best
If I told you what it's like, if I showed you what's inside
It would never really change, 'cause my heart's up in the sky
If I took the final step, if I tried to change you back
Everything around us all would become a world of black

Will there ever be a day I can see the sun arise?
Am I nothing but a thought? Have I ever been alive?
Have I hidden something dark? Am I sad within my heart?
There's no telling what I am, I don't know myself at all
If I walked a little more would my feet get tired or sore?
How can anybody love? Doesn't caring only hurt?
If I learned to change myself, if I somehow made it right
Everything around us all would become a world of white

Take a look around, neverending, time is passing
Everybody moves with an automatic ignorance,
I'm nothing but a shell, hollowed open, living like a
Doll without its strings, yet I can't get free, so
If I never move, if I stand here motionless
My time would carry on, even if I never understand
So slowly I will change, moving forward, endlessly
I'm nothing but myself, but it's fine with me, so

Tell me how to dream, how to make it disappear
Can you hear the words I say? Will they ever reach your ears?
I'm so sick of being sad, I'm so sick of feeling mad
Maybe giving it away, feeling nothing would be best
If I told you what it's like, if I showed you what's inside
It would never really change, 'cause my heart's up in the sky
If I took the final step, if I tried to change you back
Everything around us all would become a world of black

Will there ever be a day I can see the sun arise?
Am I nothing but a thought? Have I ever been alive?
If I felt the pain you have, if I took it all from you
Then the words I have to bear would be good for nothing too
Am I really even here? Tell me where can I exist?
Did I really not belong in a place and time like this
If I learned to change myself, if I somehow made it right
Everything around us all would become a world of white

Can you tell me how to dream, how to make it disappear
Can you hear the words I say? Will they ever reach your ears?
I'm so sick of being sad, I'm so sick of feeling mad
Maybe giving it away, feeling nothing would be best
If I told you what it's like, if I showed you what's inside
It would never really change, 'cause my heart's up in the sky
If I took the final step, if I tried to change you back
Everything around us all would become a world of black

If I took the final step, if my feet could only move
Then the world would come to burn, everything would be destroyed
If I took your pain away, if I felt it deep inside
Would this fragile broken heart ever manage to be white?

Every part of you that's been, every part of me you've seen,
Every inch across the earth, did I never know a thing?
If I opened up my eyes, the emotion I've held back
Would destroy this world of our's and turn everything to black!
I had a wild hair.
