periscope

  under the surface
  behind these walls
  this is where i'm hiding
  hiding from the world
  this armoured vessel
  this steel can is my home
  and i can't get out
  and no one can get in
  
  no more will you see me again
  and oh, i'll never see the light of day
  and i know i've been under so, under so long
  hanging on to my only hope
  when i feel that i just can't cope
  i'm looking through my periscope
  
  in a shallow environment i've been taught to live
  but i always wondered what was in the deep
  trapped in the indecision of which way to go
  where it's safe and home or where no one has gone
  
  oh, i don't know why i don't get along
  got too much energy but i still belong
  to a world where all my questions are wrong
  and they won't ever understand me, so
  hanging on to my only hope
  still looking through my periscope
  
  i have a question i would like to ask
  to who's ever listening
  to myself
  does everything that you give come back to you
  and if nothing's offered you might as well be dead
  
  oh no, i have a lot more to give
  but i don't
  don't know how to let it out
  let it show
  not even to the people i know
  so here i go
  
  her i go
  hanging on to my only hope
  i'm looking through my periscope
