I'll tell you everything
As clearly as a fax machine
In spite of all the evidence
I can be less intense

But I don't know what to say
Without digging my own grave
So I'll try to change the subject
Though I know it's just too late

And I don't want to waste another day here

Inside
Just try (to reach the outside)
You'll find
(Your best intentions)
Shut down
(Just like that)

I took the faster round
Like goldfish in a plastic bag
I don't know the significance
Of living in the present tense

And when I start to stray
I don't get too far away
So I'll never know the difference
'Til it hits me in the face
And I'm not going to spend another day here

Inside
Just try (to reach the outside)
You'll find
(Your best intentions)
Shut down
(Just like that)

Inside
Just try (to reach the outside)
You'll find
(Your best intentions)
Shut down
(Just like that)

Inside
Just try (to reach the outside)
You'll find
(Your best intentions)
Shut down
(Just like that)
