The box
The song is about how things were so much simpler when we were kids,and life wasn't so complicated,the dreams that everyone has sometimes is forgotten and as we grow up we get into the box of survival,society,beauty,money and our daily jobs and sometimes we forget to live.

Chorus:
Do you remember us
Jumping all over the place
Building houses with Lego bricks
Sometimes sleeping all day
Wasn't it fun when we were kids
Always finding broken things and trying to fix them
Running into places we have never been to
But now that we are older
Saying safety comes first
We refuse to leave the box
Going out everyday
God forbid it rains
Or the weather becomes too hot
Putting hours into a job that sucks
I don't like my boss but I will get another job
Making promises we never keep
Wishing we were kids
Telling lies to ourselves to keep us on our feet
Losing a wallet in the bus
The feeling of embarrassment
Imagine the look on the bus driver's face
Money is a god we now worship
Getting a car bigger than a bus is the key.
Making promises we never keep
Wishing we were kids
Telling lies to ourselves to keep us on our feet
Dressing up for the day
The beauty of the game
I mustn't wear what I wore yesterday
I must dress up nice to impress
Must dress up better than the day before
Making promises we never keep
Wishing we were kids
Telling lies to ourselves to keep us on our feet
Bridge:
Yeah we forget we have got only one life
Running after things we may never catch
How can we think outside the box
When that's where we built our homes.
