sometimes you are trapped in yourself
wandering if anyone is going to help
but they don't, they just walk on by
laughing at what you made of your life

your holding the key
wandering if you are going to get out
trying to look about
but your fate looks a little blinding
and everyone else is tying
your bonds to the best friend of death
forever may you rest
until the day you resurrect
now the train of life is wrecked
but people pull you down, and that's hypothetically
don't feel the pain, its genetically
like your own new anesthesia
but lets forget that like its amnesia
working those gears, but i can see ya
hiding in the bushes like your a bushmen
you didn't learn, but you should when
i pull up, i am the one pushing
and you are wandering why

sometimes you are trapped in yourself
wandering if anyone is going to help
but they don't, they just walk on by
laughing at what you made of your life

so you stay up late, through the night
writing your thoughts in candle light
so you learn you have the mental might
of a wise man, but you picked the wrong sight
now you gotta change courses of drive
take your car, put it in reverse
now push the pedal to revert
sit at the table, like i wright this verse
but even your own thoughts sound the worse
working with a wooden nub, call it your pencil
everyone else looks at you like your mental
cause of your dreams of being on mtv
look through, what do you see
i think it is a new belief

sometimes you are trapped in yourself
wandering if anyone is going to help
but they don't, they just walk on by
laughing at what you made of your life

somewhere you made a wrong turn
you know cause the ache in your heart burns
telling you life is at it's worse
and now you cant put your car in reverse
your walls are filled with mental pictures
maybe you picked this up cause you thought you would be richer
making so much dough, put it in the mixture
your money just keeps going in a cycle
to your music, back to you, now time to recycle
take your money and put it somewhere else
where you think that it can help
maybe in a jar, put it on the shelf
nah it will get robbed, somewhere else
how about inside of your safe
but is that really safe
there's no voices in your head, what do you got to say
that you are trapped in your on body, but its all the same
now you are feeling insane
try to make this your life
live like you are the wise
but go ahead and try

sometimes you are trapped in yourself
wandering if anyone is going to help
but they don't, they just walk on by
laughing at what you made of your life
