Back In the Box

Back in the box, shut in the dark

Falling apart

Taking the dirt

Hiding the hurt

Locked in a dream

What does it mean?

Shut in the box

Too many locks

Back in the box, back in the box

Back in the box, back in the box

Counting down

Twisting round

See behind your back

Counting down

Twisting round

See behind your back

....behind your back [ x 7 ]

Locked in dreams

What does it mean?

Shut in a box

There's too many locks

Shut in a box

There's too many locks

Round and round

Round and round and round

I see you

Hanging there

Switch on the TV, look at the screen

Money for a Rolls or a washing machine

You pay your money and you pay your rent

Every day it's always spent

Maybe it starts to be the same

You look out your window and it starts to rain

Someone is saying it's time to die

Send us some money and I'll tell you why

I pay my stamps and I pay my tax

But it's not working and that's a fact

But all I see on the TV screen

Is starving kids and war machines

Is this what I've been taught in school?

Is education the golden rule?

The golden rule

The golden rule.......

Back in the box

Back in the box

Back in the box
