THE BOX

Did you hear that?
One, two, three, four.............
Do, Do, Do, Doooooooo..................
What time is it?
1st Verse
Livin' in a Box, trapped all alone
Livin' in a Box, with miles to go
Livin' in a Box, you long to go home............
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Did you hear that?
Chorus................
I got out, but it started to rain
Later they told me, I was insane.........
2nd Verse
Feel I'm hangin', on by a thread
Feel those voices, are all in my head
Feels so tragic, I'll stay here in bed.......
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Chorus..........
Bridge
My mind is a box, no windows no doors
And you can't find me, I'm not me anymore....
Re-peat 1st Verse
