Big Box All Locked Up

I feel like i'm trapped.

In a big box all locked up.

Yelling and screaming.

Trying to get out.

Kicking, hitting and banging on the walls.

Trapped in a big box all locked up.

I feel it closing in.

It's like quick sand.

The more you struggle.

The faster you sink.

In this case the more I try.

The tighter the lock.

I'm in a big box all locked up.

It's getting smaller.

I can't see.

Screaming in panic.

Loud yet silent.

Trapped in this big box all locked up.

The box isn't big anymore.

It's all small and tight.

But i'm still all locked up.
