It just occurred to me that I    Am living in a box   With the lid shut tight   And the key inside the lock   It was just revealed to me   That I am quite a mess   With my feelings beating on the walls   And my heart inside my chest      I want to see what life is   I want to feel what love is   I want to hear the music    Ringing in my ears   I want to see the sunrise    I want to see the stars at night   I want to feel something real   But I am living in a box      It just occurred to me    That I don't understand   Why I'm living in the dark   With a candle in my hand   I just remembered   That my life will someday end   I need to get out of here   'Cause the flame is nearly dead      I want to see what life is   I want to feel what love is   I want to hear the music   Ringing in my ears   I want to see the sunrise    I want to see the stars at night   I want to feel something real   But I am living in a box      Reach your hand out to me   Reach your hand out to me   And turn the key   Lift the lid off the box   Lift the lid off the box   And set me free      I want to see what life is   I want to feel what love is   I want to hear the music    Ringing in my ears   I want to see the sunrise    I want to see the stars at night   I want to feel something real   But I am living in a box
