The Instrumental |
| He just sits, and watches the people in the boxes |
| Everything he sees, he absorbs and adopts it |
| Mmm, he mimics and he mocks it |
| Really hates the box, but he can’t remember how to stop it |
| Uh, so he continues to watch it |
| Hoping that it’ll give him something that he can box with |
| Or how to locksmith, see, the box is locked in a box |
| Ain’t got the combination to unlock it |
| That’s why he watches, scared to look away |
| Cause at that moment, it might show him |
| What to take off the locks with |
| So he chained himself to the box, took a lock and then he locked it |
| Swallowed the combination and then forgot it |
| As the doctors jot it all down with they pens and pencils |
| The same ones that took away his voice |
| And just left this instrumental like that |
| And he never lies (He never lies, he never lies, uh) |
| And he never lies (Uh, he never lies, he never lies, no) |
| And he never lies (He never lies) |
| Cause he never said anything at all |
| He just sits, and listens to the people in the boxes |
| Everything he hears, he absorbs and adopts it |
| Anything not coming out the box, he blocks it |
| See, he loves the box and hope they never stop it |
| Anything the box tell him to do, he does it |
| Anything it tell him to get, he shops and he cops it |
| He protects the box, locks it in a box |
| When he goes to sleep, but he never sleeps |
| Cause he stays up to watch it, scared to look away |
| Cause at that moment, it might get stolen |
| And that’s the last of the boxes |
| So he chained himself to the box, took a lock and then he locked it |
| Swallowed the combination and then forgot, it |
| As the doctors jot it all down with they pens and pencils |
| The same ones that took away his voice |
| And just left this instrumental, like that |
| And he never lies (He never lies, he never lies, uh) |
| And he never lies (Uh, he never lies, he never lies, no) |
| And he never lies (He never lies) |
| Cause he never said anything at all |
| (Anything at all) He never lies |
| Uh, and you can’t tell me just who you are |
| You buyin them clothes just to hide those scars |
| You built that roof just to hide those stars |
| Now you can’t take it back to the start |
| And you can’t tell me just who you are |
| You buyin them clothes just to hide those scars |
| You built that roof just to hide those stars |
| Now you can’t take it back to the start |
| And he never lies (He never lies, he never lies, uh) |
| And he never lies (Uh, he never lies, he never lies, no) |
| And he never lies (He never lies) |
| Cause he never said anything at all |
| (Anything at all, anything at all) |
| Uhh, and you can’t tell me just who you are |
| You buy new clothes just to hide those scars |
| You built that roof just to hide those stars |
| Now you can’t take it back to the start |
| And you can’t tell me just who you are |
| You buy new clothes just to hide those scars |
| You built that roof just to hide those stars |
| Now you can’t take it back to the start |
| (Anything at all, anything at all) |
| Uh, and you can’t tell me just who you are |
| You buy new clothes just to hide those scars |
| You built that roof just to hide those stars |
| Now you can’t take it back to the start |
| And you can’t tell me just who you are |
| You buy new clothes just to hide those scars |
| You built that roof just to hide those stars |
| Now you can’t take it back to the start |
