They give us knowledge, but not the desire to know it They tell us how to speak correctly, but not to speak with our hearts They teach us the definition, but not the feeling The goddamn meaning of life, but not the point They give us a key without a door Then tie us down when we try to carve out our own And wonder why we dont go anywhere
