Trapped in a Box

Trapped in a box of tremendous size.
it distorts my vision, it closes my eyes.
Attracts filthy flies and pollutes in the skies.
It sucks up our lives and proliferates lies.
Trapped in a box.

Trapped in a box, four walls and sky.
Got a screen for a window about two feet wide.
My mind rides and slides as my circuits are fried.
No room for thought, use the box as my guide.
Trapped in a box.

Trapped in a box.
Watch the world as it flocks.
To life's paradox.
We're all trapped in a box.

Trapped in a box I'm not alone.
I know of others with a box as their home.
Light only enters from a crack or a hole.
This is not enough for a human to grow.
Trapped in a box.

Trapped in a box.
Watch the world as it flocks.
To life's paradox.
We're all trapped in a box.

Always wanting a different view.
Instants gratifications for you.
Reality gone with a single click.
I just hope that switch won't stick.

Trapped in a box my life becomes void.
All I thought for myself is now destroyed.
Controlling my mind, what to eat, what to buy.
Sobliminal rules: how to live, how to die.
Trapped in a box.

Trapped in a box.
Watch the world as it flocks.
To life's paradox.
We're all trapped in a box.
