A song from the soul written long ago, by myself, in second grade, but it's changed a bit. |
I'm all alone and nobody knows other than me, I'm all alone but nobody knows other than me, I'm all alone in a box of solitude, I've tried to get out but somehow I just can't, And every single time I never seem to succeed, But every single time I did it without heed, And all I know right now is this, That right now this box is locked and I don't have the key, (short musical break) Cause I'm trapped in a box of solitude, And I don't think I'll ever get out, Cause I'm trapped in a box of solitude, And I don't think that they know about, Me being trapped in a box of solitude, All I can do is wait, Cause every time I have tried I've ended up in checkmate, Cause I'm trapped in a box of solitude, And I'm locked in without the key. (musical break) But then I got a key, From those who had known me, It unlocked that box to a world much larger, And everything that I could see, Just seemed so new to me, Hard to think I'd been here all along. But soon it came, it came to me, What we just couldn't see, This larger world was also in a box. More free for we, But beyond these walls we did not know, What could be or what could grow, But now the two things that I know are this, With you there should always be another, And right now this box is locked and we don't have the key. (short musical break) Cause we're trapped in a box of solitude, And I don't think we'll ever get out, Cause we're trapped in a box of solitude, And I don't think that they know about, Us being trapped in a box of solitude, All we can do is wait, Cause every time we have tried we've ended up in checkmate, Cause we're trapped in a box of solitude, And we're locked in without the key. (musical break) Strolling along on a Saturday, Right around noon on a summer day, Humming a song in my own special way, Why I don't know, but suddenly she, For what ever reason, came over to me, And my heart soared way above my head, When I heard what she had said, When she said that she liked me, We would soar and we could see, That together is that we were the key. Then that box tore away and let us all see, The beauty of being free. (musical break) Cause we were trapped in a box of solitude, And I didn't think we'd ever get out, Cause we were trapped in a box of solitude, And I didn't think that they knew about, Us being trapped in a box of solitude, We no longer have to wait, Cause every time we had tried we'd ended up in checkmate, Cause we were trapped in a box of solitude, But now we're freed from that box of solitude, And we'll never have to see it again. |
