What I need

There he stands
In my way
Pointing at me
Saying: "Hey!"
"This is not
For you to see
Walk away
Let it be"
But I can never stand for this
Believing ignorance is bliss
And so I scream into his face:
"This is what I need!"
He then staggers
Just a bit
And starts giving me
Loads of shit
Telling me
That they know best
That I shouldn't
Upset the rest
I don't believe a word they say
It's just the same crap everyday
And so I scream up to the sky:
"This is what I need!"
To see the world
Through my own eyes
To not be hearing
More of their lies
To pull the walls down
So I can see
And do my damnedest
To just be free
To see the world
Through my own eyes
To not be hearing
More of their lies
To pull the walls down
So I can see
And do my damnedest
To just be free
(solo)
I then push him
To the side
Only to find
Steel door behind
Locked up tight
Like all the rest
Feels like yet
Another test
But I'll break down that fucking door
Sweat dripping from my every pore
All the while screaming at the world:
"This is what I need!"
And when the door at last breaks down
I'll step inside and look around
I'll smile and whisper to myself:
"This is what I need..."
