Boxes (Acoustic)

[Verse 1]

Went to the wrong school

Wearing the wrong shoes

They told me that I should sit down and just bite my tongue

'Cause if you're lucky

You'll get to university

Say three hail Marys

And everything bad will be gone

[Refrain]

But I'm so tired of standing still

And I'm not buying what you're trying to sell

[Chorus]

So don't wake me up

If you're only going to tell me to give it up

Then say everything I do is never enough

'Cause you're lying through your teeth

We don't fit into your boxes

We're all different underneath

Don't wakе me up

[Verse 2]

When I got my first guitar

My father told mе "Son

Four chords is all you need to show people just who you are"

So I played to strangers

Down by the backstreets

And everytime they caught me dreaming I'd say

[Chorus]

Don't wake me up

If you're only going to tell me to give it up

Then say everything I do is never enough

'Cause you're lying through your teeth

We don't fit into your boxes

We're all different underneath

Don't wake me up

Don't wake me up

[Refrain]

'Cause I'm so tired of standing still

And I'm not buying what you are trying to sell

So don't wake me up

[Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, don't wake me up

If you're only going to tell me to give it up

Then say everything I do is never enough

'Cause you're lying through your teeth

We don't fit into your boxes

We're all different underneath

Don't wake me up

Don't wake me up

Don't wake me up

[Outro]

Don't wake me up
