A Little Box Lyrics by Vast Illusion

Little Box

2016

A fierce knock was waking me up that night
Drowsy eyes opened up as I turned on the light
A scorched smell in the air that kept undefined
A man in front tells me that I have to hide
So I went back, just to grab my keys
And out the window I saw a crowd trying to flee
Shouting and yelling followed them down the street
Somehow I thought I must be caught in dreams
Certainly I understood that I was not
Across the house I discovered a little box
Carefully I crossed the street and silently knocked
And seconds later I opened up and just got a shock
Somehow I hoped I would be in paradise
But it seemed to me that it was paralyzed
That image is haunting me through every night
I wish for nothing more than to feel death inside
I heard myself dying several times
Dark fear is the reason why we’re blind
Before I give up, losing this fight
I keep begging for a reason to stay alive
So just help me, leave future behind
I cannot go on believing in this life
When I know there’s no peace to find
In a world that’s not human inside
I will run
I will run with you
Until we see the truth
There is nothing to lose
We will be gone
We leave it all behind
Just this one time
Yesterday a man came to me and asked
‘Why the hell does everybody get so mad?’
And I didn’t know if I should give a guess
Though I know that no one else will take a stand
And for years we believed there is no death
In time we will learn and may understand
That life will always be a mess
So we ignore to hold on to ourselves
Everything around us became so vast
That at some point I thought we walk back instead
You told me we’re great, that was a lie I guess
Now I sit down to fight absurdity with depth
Last night I woke up, a desert inside
Peace must have given up this forgotten fight
As you lost your trust for what we strive
As you lost your trust in what might be right
I heard myself dying several times
Dark fear is the reason why we’re blind
Before I give up, losing this fight
I keep begging for a reason to stay alive
So just help me, leave future behind
I cannot go on believing in this life
When I know there’s no peace to find
In a world that’s not human inside
I will run
I will run with you
Until we see the truth
There is nothing to lose
We will be gone
We leave it all behind
Just this one time
