Boxes Lyrics by Billie Marten

Feeding Seahorses by Hand

2019

[Verse 1]
Some days I feel that
I am bigger than most
I don't have the ego
I am not one to boast
It is just I see the people as part of a whole
It is just I see the people in a big fish bowl
[Chorus]
We are boxes on boxes on boxes on boxes
On dirt
And we have things we don’t need
We are with and without any worth
So damn tired of being a lady
So damn bored of being a girl
Then again, if we look at it plainly
I'd feel the same if I were a boy
[Verse 2]
It is not the weather, or the market today
We just feel the pressure, the pressure of days
We are sat upon the table where the food is hot
We'll be talking for hours
And we eat the whole lot
[Chorus]
We are boxes on boxes on boxes on boxes
On dirt
And we have things we don’t need
We are with and without any worth
So damn tired of being a lady
So damn bored of being a girl
Then again, if we look at it plainly
I'd feel the same if I were a boy
[Verse 3]
Life is but a dream
I am just asleep
Floating
Tell me what you need
I am on my knees
Floating
Beautifully free
Life is good to me
Floating
Tada ta, da, da
Tada ta, da, da
Floating
