I think I'm as guilty of this as everyone else is, but I noticed a pattern in my life where I tried to work on problems that I didn't fully understand. This song is a reminder that taking time out to find perspective and to get the facts straight can often bring better solutions.
When I see you
You say you're sick of feeling blue
Trapped inside virtual zoo
Want to start your life anew

To free your mind
from perceived shackles that bind
Dive within the hole you call your soul
and find all the reasons why
You gotta know the reasons why

You pop a pill
Just because you're feeling ill
To you the side effects seem nill
But you cannot tell what's real

To free your mind
from perceived shackles that bind
Dive within the hole you call your soul
and find all the reasons why
You gotta know the reasons why

The tendency to take the easy fix
Can lead down a path to pure destruction
Unless you can understand the risks
The true rewards remain obstructed

Unless you know the reasons why
And all the facts that lie behind
You gotta know the reasons why

To free your mind
From perceived shackles that bind
Dive within the hole you call your soul and find... x
