Boxes lyrics

When everything When everything was out of reach The sky was up The ground was right below our feet We played in boxes We played in boxes Cardboard boxes We played in boxes We played in boxes Cardboard boxes We wasted time We wasted time before we knew Don't punch the clock Or time will run away with you We live in boxes We live in boxes Concrete boxes We live in boxes We live in boxes Concrete boxes Now your childhood is over You're a man they have said You silently shoulder All the plans they have made You pack down your boxes and ask Who am I? The biggest trick The biggest trick they play on you To make you think The show won't go on without you We go in boxes We go in boxes Wooden boxes We go in boxes We go in boxes Wooden boxes Now the room has been emptied I'm alone in my bed The heart is a box Which the soul has fled The spell has been broken And the last word is said
