In a Box
in a box Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Closed in on both sides
Nothin' doin'
I feel resistance
As I open my eyes
Someone's foolin'
I found a way to break through this cellophane bag
In your mind
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
Life goes in circles
Around and around
Circulating
I sometimes wonder
What's movin' underground
I'm escaping
I found a way to break through this cellophane bag
'Cause I know what's goin' on
In my mind
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
Livin'
Ahh ha
I found a way to break through this cellophane bag
'Cause I know what's goin' on
In your mind
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' I'm a livin'....I'm a livin'
I'm a livin', I'm a livin'....I'm a livin'
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a box...
The song "In A Box" by In A Box describes the feeling of being trapped and confined in a metaphorical box or cage. The lyrics mention waking up feeling closed in on both sides with nothing to do, resulting in a sense of resistance. The feeling of being trapped is further emphasized with the line "Life goes in circles around and around, circulating" that suggests a repetitive and unchanging routine. The lyrics also convey a sense of frustration and the need to break free from this confinement. The chorus "I'm a living in a box, I'm living in a cardboard box" repeats the idea of being trapped inside something that is made just to contain and restrict something.
The lyrics also suggest that the confinement might not necessarily be imposed by external factors, but could be a result of one's own mind. The line "I found a way to break through this cellophane bag, 'cause I know what's going on in my mind" implies that one can be their own worst enemy, and they can break free only when they understand the root of their confinement.
Overall, "In A Box" is a powerful commentary on feeling trapped, and the overwhelming necessity to break free from the mundane and monotonous routine.
