Elysian Fields

Elysian Fields - Jack in The Box lyrics

It's been seven years nowliving in this box

Closed in on all sidesno lightjust dark

He kept me under the bedI'd pray for it to stop

He'd lock me safely awayand lie on top

Pop the latches open the hatches

Out comes jack in the box

Doing tricks and taking licks

Out comes jack in the box

I was an uncut marionette hanging by steel cable threads

I was a shadow dancer a thousand shades of red

There's too much light it's far too bright

I things much too clearly

There's too much lightit far too bright

Wearyoh so weary

If this is all of life outside

Please put me where I am happy

Where I won't know what to think of this

Black in blackalmost sleeping

Pop the latches open the hatchesout comes jack in the box

Doing tricks and taking licksout comes jack in the box

Please lock me up

Shut me up

Shut up your jack in the box
