Lyrics
Man In The Box
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Blissful Ignorance, such a shame that we can't enjoy
Tune our minds back in to the stream, and together we'll flow
Pardon me my dear, you are mistaken
There is nothing here to find a claim with
Please file to the back
You're interrupting
Smooth transition helps to hide disruption
There's a vacancy unknown
Only those who fill the void return intact I'm told
There's a vacancy unknown
Such a mystery to those who haven't
Oh no, tell me, what am I supposed to do as everything in front of me unfolds
Calm but concerning, search these worlds, so preoccupied
When you find yourself shaking
It's just the medication that's withdrawn from haunting you
It's no concern of ours, just know we're saving the best part
Remind yourself that you're expendable
A perfect symmetry that lies beyond comprehension
Don't be so bold to call out towards the sky
Did you ask yourself why?
So proud to reveal deception but so unprepared to find what lies beneath
Now you're bound by restless fear, uncovered all the pieces that provided shelter
Understand there is no turning back this time
Because you've gone too far, you've gone too far
Understand this is not negotiable
I fear you've gone too far, you've gone too far this time
