Everywhere you look is grey
You don't know how you feel
You walk about this big wide world
And none of it seems real
You don't look at the people
You just look straight ahead
When they try to speak to you
You don't hear what they've said
Your mind is blank
You live in a cloud
If they want your attention
They must speak loud
You take life with ease
You just plod along
You don't watch T.V
But you like the odd song
You're carefree, but clumsy
You live in a dream
Sometimes you don't like it
That's when you want to scream
This bubble you're trapped in
Just won't seem to pop
This empty place you live in
Just won't seem to stop
You simply don't care
You can't make up your mind
You really are pleasant
Quite soft, also kind
You've been floating about
In this bubble so long
You feel alright
But you know that it's wrong
You can't face reality
You're scared to come out
You don't understand
What this world's all about
You can't make decisions
You cannot debate
If you have confrontation
Well that, you just hate
You feel people look down on you
They make you feel small
So you stay in your bubble
Where you feel nothing at all
You're not very happy
Quite miserable you're told
You feel quite weak
When you should be quite bold
Maybe just one day
This bubble will burst
Then you can live free
Instead of under this curse
But now until then
You'll stay where you're stuck
You feel quite safe
But you're stuck in a rutt
One day at a time
That's what you must do
Until this bubble bursts
And you can break through.
