Fliptop Box

(Check)

[Verse 1]

Flip-top box, nail and lock me under

All I ask is for three minutes of time and I know you don't mind

Flip-top box, show a feeling

I'm defenseless, I'm so nervous kissing you

[Pre-Chorus 1]

I tell myself

That I'm bold and bigger

I'm such a liar

[Chorus 1]

From the darkness comes the light

Stopping slowly short of nothing

Crying wait, wait

Now you're alone

An obsession overblown

An addiction all too familiar

Crying wait, wait

Now you're alone

[Verse 2]

Flip-top box, some claim you Jesus

But we'll all meet him soon enough

Introduce your homosexual friends

I know better now

I don't need you hangin' out

'Cause you smell like shit and ten dead cowboys would agree

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I tell myself

I'm not cold or bitter

I'm such a liar

[Chorus 2]

From your past here comes your prime

Your behaviour's unsatisfactory

Crying wait, wait

Now you're alone

Beyond excuses in your head

An addiction all too familiar

Crying wait, wait

Now you're alone

[Break]

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Bridge]

I'm a fool I suppose

It's what inside that matters most

I'll be better off alone

[Verse 3]

Flip-Top Box, I'm James Dean if you say so

Punch drunk in my halo, spinning upwards towards the roof

Flip-Top Box, show a feeling

I'm defenseless, I'm so nervous kissing you

[Pre-Chorus 3]

I appoint myself

So cool and clever

I'm such a liar

[Chorus 1]

From the darkness comes the light

Stopping slowly short of nothing

Crying wait, wait

Crying wait, wait

Crying wait, wait

Now you're alone
