The Black Box Songtext
von Finding Amelia

You hide your face from me, why don′t you feel ashamed
And all the while you pretend that it's a game
A speck′s in my eye but you have a two-by-four
And you don't seem to care
In public you smile but then as my back is turned
You say that it's unfair

You think you′re smooth but I′m aware

So like a dove I'll rise above and peacefully embrace the flight
While looking down and knowing you won′t reach this height
I wish you well, but you don't feel the same
For every bump in life you look to me to blame
You look to me to blame


You can′t defend yourself from what you can't replace
Blind by the red, a mistake you can′t erase
Stronger are they to admit they're wrong
And then work to make it right
Weaker are they to bury their flaws
And disappear into the night

Then whine like a fool at every slight

So like a dove I'll rise above and peacefully embrace the flight
While looking down and knowing you won′t reach this height
I wish you well, but you don′t feel the same
For every bump in life you look to me to blame
You look to me to blame

Unholy, controlling, you're hoping to be the one who writes our history
Unholy, controlling, you′ll never be the one who's satisfied and free

So like a dove I′ll rise above and peacefully embrace the flight
While looking down and knowing you won't reach this height
I wish you well, all your problems are the same
For every bump in life you′ll have yourself to blame
