I'M AN OPTIMIST
WITH A PESIMISTICAL VIEW
I DREAM IN REALITY
AND REALITY IS A DREAM
MASKED EMOTIONS
SO CROSS YOUR EYES
AND DOT YOUR Ts
DON'T LIVE IN A STAINED GLASS PERCEPTION TOO LONG
SURE, THE GLASS IS PRETTY TO LOOK AT
BUT YOU CAN'T SEE BEHIND IT
DARE YOU BREAK IT FOR A BETTER VIEW?
YOU CAN JUST MAKE OUT A FIGURE BEHIND IT
WILL YOU LIVE BEHIND YOUR WINDOW FOREVER?
YOU CARRY YOURSELF WITH MUFFLED EARS
SEEMS LIKE I'M SHOUTING FROM BENEATH A PILLOW
I'M BEING DROWNED OUT BY A LOW PLAYING ORGAN GRINDER
WITH HIS COIN CATCHING CHIMP
PASS ME A PENNY AND HEAR MY THOUGHTS
FREE SPEECH WILL COST YOU, FRIEND
