lyrics

I've built a box, then filled it to the top with things I'd never want and then sealed it with the strongest lock
But the key is always on my chain, but only metaphorically and in my brain
I think I'll have to swallow it in the "not-so-shallow" ditch that I've dug with a shovel caked in love
I could try to bury the box

But you're a miner and a locksmith, someone I'd like to un-spend time with
With a pick-axe made of fear and a lock-pick set you've had for years
But 2 1/2 wasnt so bad for some of the best nights I wish I never had
Sitting in my room, still thinking of you, hoping I made the right move
A cup of tea that left a ring to stand for everything I'm not, like trustworthy or enough okay I'm sorry that it was too hot
I tried my best to hold you steady but all along you knew you werent ready
I hate your house, waited for you to come out but you wouldnt show me shit with them around

I tried to hold my ground but it just keeps on slipping
Please tell me theres more to living than a tight chest and a never caught breath
Or my new aversion to mirrors. Or how about my newfound love of beer
So please take it easy on me
I know I seem quite carefree
I'm not, I'm locked in a self-destructive child
A toxic damage doing closed off mess
So please just be careful with me
I'm a fragile egoed being
You asked if I believed in love as if you could even care
Well I guess that's why I cut my hair
