DEMONS IN BOXES Lyrics

Demons put in boxes

Smiles pressed Façade'd

Thinking about the time

That people felt with promise

Demons don't fit boxes

Bleed into the faucet

Streaming through your life and

Causing all the problems

Think about the time

Before time whipped and whined

And told you you had promise

And believe in that kids promise

You are more

Than you

Were given

Life is more than affirmations

Believe the steps

You choose to step

Make each step

One step for a future

A future where every step

Isn't measured in how many steps

You stepped with your friends steps

Stepping on your high score

Can we measure our worth on the steps we've stepped?

Compass Me

I try to talk at a speed that is normal

But my thoughts gather and collect like a storm boil

Pressing on my skin, threating to come in

Let the emotions gather and fester and falter

My mind cannot keep up with the thought

That there is more thoughts to be thought

That what thought I may... Think!

I think it's time to gather my think

And begin another thought that's starts with distraught

My mother left me to the shadows

Let me fester fight

With no one to gather

My belief and my compass stored my in the closet

So god could judge me

Threw me in the sludge see

Hey ma where is the light switch

I wish I could change, bitch

Lights, heights

Can't stand out too tall

No one will notice

If my eyes look, hey, nice wall

The boy sitting closest

He won't notice at all

I am a sinner

No, nothing at all

Because i chose to look up

And face what i saw

Compass Me

I pushed you far

You crashed and burned

Scars on the fall

No, wait, nothing at all

You would never know

The scars that won't show

The ones that buried

Deep in your soul

Your eyes

Dear one

Will tell all my fall

Compass me

You pull away and send me astray

From the life that I knew

But felt wrong to see

And you stood still

I love you, Phill
