If you would just look a bit closer
And with a little more care,
You may just see something that
Nobody thought was there.If you would just strain your eyes
And squint through life's deception,
Everything might change drastically
Through new views on perception.If you would just use your head
And think things through for once,
The world may be revealed to you -
Though it won't if you're a dunce.If you would just stop and wait,
Maybe it would become clear -
The things that you think do exist?
They were never really here.
