pretty flower ugly roots

I do not understand 
what it is I've done wrong  
Full of holes, 
check the pulse  
Blink your eyes 
one for yes, 
two for no   
I've no idea what I am talking about  
I'm trapped in this body and can't get out

Has the light gone out for you  

Because the light's gone for me? 

It is the 21st century, it is the 21st century
