Box in a Heart

What a lonely way to lie Pretend that you're alright Then take a handful of white pills to make you smile You haven't been yourself at all Though I know it's not your fault They left you wondering just who the hell you are There's a box in your heart Where you keep your feelings hidden It's been carefully locked, shut And the house that you call home Feels more like a prison Say you're happier now but But I figured you out I know you swore to tell the truth But the truth is hiding And every smile that you sell, baby, I'm not buying The only way you feel alive is when you feel like dying And you won't look me in the eyes 'cause you know you're lying Lyin', lyin', lyin' You're lyin' Lyin', lyin' I'm in the deep end Always on defense Yeah, you scared to let your own eyes see you cry So what can it hurt to breathe your breath Screaming out till nothing's left No matter what the voices say There's better days ahead There's a box in your heart Where you keep your feelings hidden It's been carefully locked, shut And the house that you call home feels more like a prison Say you're happier now but But I figured you out I know you swore to tell the truth but the truth is hiding And every smile that you sell, baby I'm not buying The only way you feel alive is when you feel like dying And you won't look me in the eyes cause you know you're lying Lying, lying, lying You're lying Lying, lying, lying You're lying Lying, lying, lying You're lying Lying, lying
