lab rat

I am a lab rat
here's how I spend my days
running into walls
in this mousetrap of a maze
dreaming of adventure
beyond an open door
I don't think living here
is worth living for

I am a lab rat
every day's the same
I bang my head in anguish
against the rules of this game
there's nothing to hold onto
there's no meaning anymore
I don't think living here
is worth living for

          sat a prayer for me
          maybe God will listen
          it's better to ask forgiveness
          than be begging for permission

I am a lab rat
of that there's no doubt
stuck inside a puzzle
and I can't dig my way out
there's no use in pretending
there's nothing to explore
I don't think living here
is worth living for
I don't think living here
is an option anymore
