Because I am curious
You see that line over there, I will cross it
Because it was drawn and so I am curious
You see that boundary, that wall, I will traverse it
Because I am always wondering, though it may be a curse
You see that demon that blocks my path
I will burn him to the ground because he asks
Me to do things that I don’t want to do
But I do them anyway because I’m obtuse
You see that rock that stands in my way
I will just walk around it, I will just walk away
Because I am tired and this shell is so hard
To crack, like a nut, without a tool to start
You see this brain, I will take it out
Because it’s clouding the issue and I am beginning to doubt
That I really know anything, anything at all
With broken wings, as I fall and fall
Matter is pathetic, flesh is futile, I am waiting
To be set free from me, from me, from this thing incomplete
But...you see that line over there, I will cross it
Because it was drawn and because I am curious.
