Musicbox |
| The mallets hit the gears are always turning |
| And everyone inside the mechanism |
| Is yearning |
| To get out |
| And sing another melody completely |
| So different from the one they’re always singing |
| I close my eyes and think that I have found me |
| But then I feel mortality surround me |
| I want to sing another melody |
| So different from the one I always sing |
| …but when I do the dishes… |
| I run the water very very very hot |
| And then I fill the sink to the top with bubbles of soap |
| And then I set all the bottle caps I own afloat |
| And it’s the greatest voyage in the history of plastic |
| And then I slip my hands in and start to make waves |
| And then I dip my tongue in and take a taste |
| It tastes like soap but it doesn’t really taste like soap |
| And then I lower in my whole mouth and take a gulp |
| …and start to… |
| Feel mortality surround me |
| I close my eyes and think that I have found me |
| But life inside the music box ain’t easy |
| The mallets hit the gears are always turning |
| And everyone inside the mechanism |
| Is yearning to get out… |
