Boxes

Went to the wrong school
 Wearing the wrong shoes
 They told me that I should sit down
 And just bite my tongue
 'Cause if you're lucky
 You'll get to university
 Say three hail Mary's
 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
 'Cause 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
 'Cause 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
 'Cause I'm so tired of standing still
 And I'm not buying what you're trying to sell
 So don't wake me up
 ♪
 Oh, oh, 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
 'Cause 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
