Black Box Lyrics by Alteras

Grief

2016

[Verse 1]
I get so lost inside my head, I sink deeper than deep and "I'm a keeper," I weep
I'm running round in circles singing songs with no words
So no one else can hear my thoughts be thought out loud and clear
Got no one else to blame, it’s me who's got this mind to tame

[Chorus]
Leave me solely slowly sinking only to lose sight of what's important in my little black box life
Damn, my darling deviance deciding who's real and who isn't sleeping in their bed tonight

[Verse 2]
It's like my mouth has been sewn shut by a tailor whose oppositions weren't quite just
Fairness is in the eye of the beholder, with years the feelings colder, it smolders 'til ashes boulder
Hell, it seems so far away
When God's house is down the street

[Chorus]
Leave me solely slowly sinking only to lose sight of what's important in my little black box life
Damn, my darling deviance deciding who's real and who isn't sleeping in their bed tonight

[Bridge]
Damn it, damn it to hell, oh well

[Bridge 2]
Leave me alone, leave me alone

[Chorus]
Leave me solely slowly sinking only to lose sight of what's important in my little black box life
Damn, my darling deviance deciding who's real and who isn't sleeping in their bed tonight
