Trapped in a box of tremendous size

It distorts my vision, it closes my eyes

Attracts filthy flies and pollutes in the skies

Sucks up our lives and proliferates lies

Trapped in a box



Trapped in a box, four walls as sky

Got a screen for a window about two feet wide

My mind rides and slides as my circuits are fried

No room for thought, use the box as my guide

Trapped in a box



Trapped in a box

Watch the world as it flocks

To life's paradox

We're all trapped in a box



Trapped in a box I'm not alone

I know of others with a box as their home

Light only enters from a crack or a hole

This is not enough for a human to grow

Trapped in a box



Chorus: Always wanting a different view

Instant gratification for you

Reality gone in a single click

Just hope that that switch won't stick



Trapped in a box my life becomes void

All I thought for myself is now destroyed

Controlling my mind, what to eat, what to buy

Sublinal rules: how to live, how to die

Trapped in a box
