Dig A Little Deeper Lyrics
You think you've got it made
I'm trying to have some fun
You think you know it all
I've only just begun
You're sliding on the surface
I'm reaching for the bottom
The past is
The future fades away
And if you think your brain is hollow
You just have to scream
And dig a little deeper.
All art has been contemporary
Dig a little deeper, dig a little deeper
You enjoy the silence
When I want to discuss
You like to keep it tidy
I wanna mess it up
I defy definition
Of what's supposed to be
I don't want recognition
If you don't recognize me
And if you think your brain is hollow
You just have to scream
And dig a little deeper.
All art has been contemporary
Dig a little deeper, dig a little deeper
Oh-oh, oh-oh
I'm trying to have some fun
You think you know it all
I've only just begun
You're sliding on the surface
I'm reaching for the bottom
The past is
The future fades away
And if you think your brain is hollow
You just have to scream
And dig a little deeper.
Dig a little deeper, dig a little deeper
When I want to discuss
You like to keep it tidy
I wanna mess it up
I defy definition
Of what's supposed to be
I don't want recognition
If you don't recognize me
And if you think your brain is hollow
You just have to scream
And dig a little deeper.
Dig a little deeper, dig a little deeper

I think this might be about general open-mindedness in comparison to a character who is less likely to want to open his or her mind.
