Box Elder

Hey Box Elder, where'd you go?
Hey Box Elder, take me with you
Loneliness, I don't exist, that's fine, okay
I slip undressed and all of this will end, okay?
Hey Box Elder, I'm terrified of everything at night
Hey Box Elder, I'm terrified of what I lack inside me
Caught me talking to myself again
One by one, we all go marching in
I hate myself and no one else
But I lie so well, it should never tell
If I let you in, it would end
I care too much to leave this hole
Loneliness, I don't exist, that's fine, okay
December's gift, a constant fist to spine, okay
I'm terrified of everything at night
Hey Box Elder
A dying wish to care if I exist
Hey Box Elder
Caught me talking to myself again
One by one, we all go marching in
I hate myself and no one else
But I lie so well, it should never tell
If I let you in, it would end in smoke
I care too much to leave this hole
When loneliness comes crashing in
I will always sink, I'll never swim
It's the game I play, it's the
The constant captive of my words
When I'm at my worst
Hey Box Elder, take me with you
Hey Box Elder, take me with you
