"Choose Your Own Adventure" Lyrics

I want a box around myself
So they can put me on the shelf
To see the way I live

But the holes are blocked
By everybody else inside
As far as I can tell

They're all living well
Living better, still
Oh that's the way it is

Climbing up the corporate ladder
Trying to escape through the roof

Can you explain
Lives led in vain?
It seems like everybody's looking for their way out

It's not a problem, it's a hell
We only do what people tell
But can you tell me, anyone
The consequences of setting someone free?

Can you explain
Lives led in vain?
It seems like everybody's looking for their way out

Have you ever felt the pinch
When your life's confined
Well, get your ass in line
It's hard not to car what they say
I'd like to think we'll break away
I don't believe that growing up
Means cashing out and giving up

Can you explain
Lives led in vain?
It seems like everybody's looking for their way out

This box contains
Just one thing
The fact that I will probably ever find a way...

Can't you help me fade out?

You know that everybody's looking for their way out
