The Box

Yesterday When I was just a boy In times of youthful hero worship My kind have been molded by images on the screen Brought up to emulate the big Guns Just another guest on death's best show The influence cuts deeper than mom knows Electric waves The demon's fly Now could we just be Bred to kill or DIE There must be something else The blame I place on myself Behind the tired eyes The tears go uncried In the Box Doin' time In the Box Just like doin' time In the Box Doin' time In the Box Now that I'm grown Abandoned childhood toys But still what danger Have I retained To grab the brass ring To go in for the kill And covet the good you know 'dem got for MURDER It's just another guest on death's best show The influence cuts deeper than mom knows Electric waves The demon's fly Now could we just be Bred to kill or DIE There got to be something else The blame I place on myself Behind tired eyes The demon's stir The tears go uncried In the Box Doin' time In the Box Just like doin' time In the Box Doin' time In the Box Minds are locked down (out) Minds are locked down (out) Minds are locked down (out) Minds are locked down (out)
