Box with Spirits Lyrics


You bite your tongue to keep the peace

You beg for time that won't release

You play the part, forget what once was you

You count the lies like counting sheep

You bury hope instead of sleep

You cage your past and call it living hell

'Cause in my dreams

I've been lost, I've been found

I've been running for too long

Come on

So I drop another tear for another lie

'Cause I keep my heart in my box with spirits

I hold my breath and fake the peace

I chase a calm that won't release

I play it right, forget what I once knew

I stitch the cracks with borrowed thread

I dream in black as I feel dead

I hide my truth and call it something new

'Cause in my dreams

I've been lost, I've been found

I've been running for too long

Come on

So I drop another tear for another lie

Cause I keep my heart in my box with spirits
