lyrics

I feel like lately
I haven't been doing much
Positive thinking
Yeah, I feel so serious
I wanna be lighter
I wanna lighten up.

I keep repeating
The same washed-out mistakes
But, I'm getting better
Yeah, I give myself some grace
And, I'm getting older
But, I feel bitter and cold.

These boxes feel so small
I can't breathe the walls are closing in.
These boxes feel so small
I keep growing. I no longer fit in here.

Life's a spiral
And always up and down
Like a heartbeat
Can you hear that secret sound?
That we're all humming
It's my favorite tune.

These boxes feel so small
I can't breathe the walls are closing in.
These boxes feel so small
I keep growing. I no longer fit in here.

These boxes feel so small
I can't breathe the walls are closing in.
These boxes feel so small
I keep growing. I no longer fit

Here, where I always am
I set a trap and get stuck in
Co-dependent relationships
There fear I feel. My own moodiness.
There, where I wanna be
I know I see it, the grass is green.
Robbing me of simple bliss
I've built these walls where I don't wanna live.

These boxes feel so small
I can't breathe the walls are closing in.
These boxes feel so small
I keep growing. I no longer fit in here.
