A Box To Hide In Lyrics

I forgot to tell you

I have smart new shoes on

Bought with the money they gave me

After the London bombs

And I forgot to tell you

I've pulled myself together

Gave next door the TV

Stopped trying to belong

And I forgot to tell you

I have your thick wollen socks on

So it feels like your feet are still touching my feet

Though you're gone

Though you're gone

I forgot to tell you

A girl at the office lost her husband

You met him at the barbeque

I've chipped in for flowers

And the waiting,

The waiting really hurt her

They put it on the news

But they didn't phone her for 11 hours

And I realise she was looking to me

For some kind of solidarity

I can read her thoughts

A widow and a widower

But I have nothing

No, I have nothing to offerChris T-T - A Box To Hide In - http://motolyrics.com/chris-t-t/a-box-to-hide-in-lyrics.html

Today, today we stop standing around

Today we're not standing our ground

Find ourselves a box to hide in

For the rest of our lives

Today, today we start running away

And we'll always be running away

Or the box might aswell be a grave

I forgot to tell you

The whole estate is talking

The police came down last night

And took some boys away

Nobody rushed to judgement

In the face of their machine guns

We know our history better than the liars on TV

But we don't know what to say

We just hold on to our anger

Though we won't let it evaporate

Gotta hold on, we won't let anger fade

Today, today we stop standing around

Today we're not standing our ground

Find ourselves a box to hide in

For the rest of our lives

Today, today we start running away

And we'll always be running away

Or the box might aswell be a grave
