lyrics

Don’t we learn
To put ourselves in boxes
With the dreams we hope
Will set us free?

Don’t we label all our hopes
And our dreams
With the plans of who
We’d like to be?

We can search for years
The whole world over
While enduring
The daily grind
But when all we can see
Are boxes
Our true selves
Are locked inside
And a true love
Is hard to find

Don’t we learn
To put each other in boxes
With the labels stuck
Inside our minds?
We find doctors and bakers
And candlestick makers
And repairmen of every kind

We can search for years
The whole world over
While looking past
Everyone we meet
But when all we can see
Are boxes
A true friend
Is left behind
And a true love
Is hard to find

What’s the point
In measuring our boxes
And comparing one
To the next?
When we open up
And look inside
At being ourselves
We’re all the best
At being ourselves
We’re all the best
