Boxes (Acoustic)

Went to the wrong school

Wearing the wrong shoes

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

Coz if you're lucky

You'll get to university

Say three hail Marys

And everything bad will be gone

But I'm so tired of standing still

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

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

Coz you're lying through your teeth

We don't fit into your boxes

We're all different underneath

Don't wake me up

When I got my first guitar

My father told me 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

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

Coz 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

Coz I'm so tired of standing still

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

So don't wake me up

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

Coz 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

Don't wake me up
