Boxes Lyrics

I hate the look of boxes 'cause I've moved too many times

And when they start appearing I lose someone in my life

It's a different place but same familiar feeling

I hate the feel of boxes that you try to fit me in

When you claim the parts you like of me are everything I am

It's a different face but the same entitled feeling

You drive me crazy, baby

So don't blame me when I pull you in then push you out

I'm not a lady, baby

So don't come expecting civil love from me

It's not your fault I'm so detached, but

It's not my fault you care so much though

It's not your fault that I'm so fucking blue

It's not your fault I'm so detached, but

It's not my fault you care so much

And though it's not your job to care after all I put you through

I'm glad you do

(Ooh)

I hate the way we talk like things are never gonna end

When I know I'm gonna run away before you get the chance

How we filter conversations after filtering our thoughts

Maybe if we'd been more honest now we wouldn't be so lost

And I hate how I blame boxes so that way I can pretend

That they're taking all the good ones and I'm not pushing them away

It's not your fault I'm so detached, but

It's not my fault you care so much though

It's not your fault that I'm so fucking blue

It's not your fault I'm so detached, but

It's not my fault you care so much

And though it's not your job to care after all I put you through

I'm glad you do

(Ooh)

I know I can be cynical

Trusting no-one but myself

And second-guessing every move you make

But you're so hypocritical

Telling me to be myself

Then shaming me for every little thing

You drive me crazy, baby

So don't come expecting civil love from me

It's not your fault I'm so detached, but

It's not my fault you care so much though

It's not your fault that I'm so fucking blue

It's not your fault I'm so detached, but

It's not my fault you care so much

And though it's not your job to care after all I put you through

I'm glad you do

(Ooh)

(Ooh)
