The Books - Boxes Lyrics

Time loses its meaning as I sit here thinking
Of who and what could have been more
Places I forgot and people who have knocked at my door
They're no more

Boxes left unopened underneath every single syllable, how forgettable
Words you left unspoken buried here between me and what you really mean
Dodging all those questions, yeah. You've been constantly cloaked in mystery
Subdued by my thoughts, you were really wanted but you went and lost it all

Seemingly, all is done although its not begun
Hard to believe you were that shallow
The voice that beckons my ear won't discount all my fears, yeah
You are truly my shadow

Boxes left unopened underneath every single syllable, how forgettable
Words you left unspoken buried here between me and what you really mean
Dodging all those questions, yeah. You've been constantly cloaked in mystery
Subdued by my thoughts, you were really wanted but you went and lost it all

Boxes left unopened underneath every single syllable, how forgettable
Words you left unspoken buried here between me and what you really mean
Dodging all those questions, yeah. You've been constantly cloaked in mystery
Subdued by my thoughts, you were really wanted but you went and lost it all

Dodging all those questions, yeah. You've been constantly cloaked in mystery
Subdued by my thoughts, you were really wanted but you went and lost it all
