The Steel Box

Intro

Mm-mm

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

Silver fences lining narrow lanes

Shadows lengthening through these hollow hallways

Crowds of ghosts move in silence

This steel box holds no solace

My mind keeps spinning circles

Pre-Chorus

Can't find the highway

Can't find the forest

Everything is grinding away

Chorus

My hands are bleeding

My heart is dying

Where is the soft green grass

Where is the clean blue water

I need a place to breathe

I need a place to hide

My hands are bleeding

My heart is dying

Verse 2

Stolen moments spent beneath red signals

Pressure pulling at my ragged coat

Breath comes sharp and bitter

Small spaces cost too much for a wandering man

I am fading under the noise

I am losing myself

Pre-Chorus

Can't find the highway

Can't find the forest

Everything is grinding away

Chorus

My hands are bleeding

My heart is dying

Where is the soft green grass

Where is the clean blue water

I need a place to breathe

I need a place to hide

My hands are bleeding

My heart is dying

Bridge

Trapped in the traffic

Trapped in the hunger

Trapped in a spinning bowl

Give me some peace for my weary soul

Chorus

My hands are bleeding

My heart is dying

Where is the soft green grass

Where is the clean blue water

I need a place to breathe

I need a place to hide

My hands are bleeding

My heart is dying

Hook

Saving myself

Oh saving myself

Losing my shadow to find my light

I am leaving

I am leaving

Breathe
