Outside The Box

There's more to life outside the box
The hand of fate controls the locks
Yet if we stay and just look out
We'll miss what life is all about

Contained within, it's safe and warm
Outside there rages many a storm
The choice is hard to make that leap
But what's in here?  We eat and sleep

So never settle for these four walls
The voice of courage gently calls
Let's hear and heed the words which fall
Lest nothing is learned, no truth at all

And moving outwards, all could be
For life is free for you and me
To learn the things we need to know
Outside the box we'll have to go
