We Squirm

Do you seriously believe
 That you will not be a prisoner?
 Do you insistently try over and over
 To seem free in your life
 In the ways that you treat
 Your loves and delights
 And your troubles and fights, and me?
 Well, let me say
 Yeah, go ahead and try
 But I say you will be captive along with me
 We're stuck in the muck of our hearts
 In fear that we'll find
 That these feelings of ours
 Start to seem like bars
 So we squirm and sink deeper
 Yes, we wriggle into jail cells
 But I say, "Let feelings hold you"
 I say, "Embrace your captors"
 I say, "Get to know them deep"
 Have no news you won't hear
 Have no truths you won't tear
 No hope that you'll ever find freedom
 From your tyrant heart
