The box that you built for me
Is far too narrow.
How will I fit my soul
Into this little thing?
...
Ah I see.
I must cut it all away.
And force what is left,
Raw and bleeding,
Into those four walls.
...
I fit in the box now,
A little too well I think.
There's so much more room
Now that all I am, is gone.
