box breathing Lyrics

(With long and constant practice, anyone can master these tricks

And you must remember that some people use them to cheat)

I step outside to breathe my lines

Carry on, it's a waste of time

I recall something undefined

Oh, your shape interlaced with my dysphagia

Throw a little back

It's not so understated

Hide like Houdini

Pretend you still see the

Illusion deceiving

It's the sleight of hand of a hollow man

Drop a weight just to feel the room

The hands frozen half past noon

Crawl just to make a move

But I'm now way too far dissuaded

Give a little more now

We can tell you're faking

So I hide like Houdini

Pretend you still see the

Illusion deceiving

It's the sleight of hand of a hollow man

Like Houdini

Pretend you still see the

Illusion deceiving

It's the sleight of hand of a hollow man

[Old timey edited recording snippets]

Watching as the crowd is wanting more of me

So I stumble in the dark to make them make-believe

And I try to play the part, but they saw right through the scene

The box still on the stage, not sawn and hardly seen

Watching as the crowd is wanting more of me

So I stumble in the dark to make them make-believe

And I try to play the part, but they saw right through the scene

The greatest trick of all, they were always empty seats

Still see me
