lyrics

I’d rather stare into the sun
Than look you in your eyes
Tell me what I need
I need some time to think
Or at least some time tonight
I’d rather stand in the wet cement
Than once again deny
An unrelenting hold
Of sexual control
It’s something I can’t fight

*I wanna get you on your own
I wanna find you and go home
I wanna take you home
She’s on her own
I wanna get you on your own
I wanna find you and go home
I wanna get you on your own
I wanna find you and go*

I never learned to talk to you
I never learned what’s right
Tell me what to feel
And hide me from what’s real
Teach me how to lie
I never learned to pity you
Cause you won’t understand
Tell me what I need
I need something to drink
I wanna hold your hand

**
Oh, tell me what I need
Just a little time to think
Teach me how to lie
Teach me how to lie
Teach me how to lie
I never learned to lie

Oh, oh, oh alone

I wanna get you on your own
I wanna find you and go home
I mean like baby here we go
I wanna find you and go

Box Seattle, Washington

Box (noun) "B'aw'cks": A local band spawned from the OFH with aspirations like Death Cab and Modest Mouse before them. Led by Johnathan Stevens and Jackson Rudd who have been writing music together since they were wee lads in jr. high school. Heavily inspired by the Strokes and Radiohead with an obvious band geekiness that can't help but reveal itself. We're all about the dance so check us out! ... more
