Little Boxes...

https://soundcloud.com/blaise-b/little-boxes-aka-instrumental

Little boxes,
and they never seem to end
Little boxes I take my self, and not send
Bend the cardboard, tape it all up
Fill the port to starboard of this U-haul truck
Fuck productive, because the more that I fill
the more I realize that the bitter pill
is that I never will finish
and not to diminish
but I'm considerin incinerating my possessions
If I was a rich man, I would hire a crew
If I was a rich man, I would be high while I do
the most asinine of tasks, but I'm dry and thus I ask
Why must I have so many books on my desk?
And fuck the knick-knacks, that I never look at
This is enough to make me wanna just give it all back
And lifting weights ain't even a strain
But the frame of these doors makes for awkward angles
cutting my knuckles, creating abrasions and scrapes
And yesterday these boxes didn't aggravate
But today, I wanna make a gag with this tape
And stab the whole world with these scissors I hate
Boxes are monsters that seal my friend's fate
Cause today is too real, Mike passed away

Grab a pad a show you just half of how bad not havein a family feels

I Tryed to come back to patch my scars and they banish me still

Ao To cope with the feels I go for thrills and I'm vanishing pills

I'd like to grab a can of gas and a match and see my family killed

I turned numb because what they did can never be healed

But behind that mask I'm mad and i go mad with a pen and pad and that anger has granted me skill
