You put me in a box
And try to understand
You've covered me with locks
Encircling my hands
You try to figure out
What it is that makes me
Me
But you'll never understand
You can't define me
Not when I can't define myself
Not when I don't know how
How to let myself be free
How to figure out what's now.
My life is mine
My life, mine to keep
That is the only thing
That can break me free
I'm not a lab rat
I'm not a chimpanzee
How can you put me in this box
And try to define me?
You will never know
Who I am
Because I'll never know
I can never understand
So let me out of this box
Take off all these locks
Stop trying to define me.
