[Verse 1]
Yesterday
When I was just a boy
In days of youthful hero worship
My kind have been molded by images on the screen
Brought up to emulate the big
Guns

[Chorus]
Just another guest on death's best show
The influence cuts deeper than mom knows
Electric waves
The demons fly
Now, could we just be
Bred to kill or DIE
There must be something else
The blame I place on myself
Behind the tired eyes
The tears go uncried

[Post-Chorus]
In the Box
Doin' time
In the Box
Just like doin' time
In the Box
Doin' time
In the Box
[Verse 2]
Now that I'm grown
Abandoned childhood toys
But still what danger
Have I retained
To grab the brass ring
To go in for the kill
And covet the good you know 'dem got for
MURDER

[Chorus]
It's just another guest on death's best show
The influence cuts deeper than Mom knows
Electric waves
The demons fly
Now, could we just be
Bred to kill or DIE
There's got to be something else
The blame I place on myself
Behind tired eyes
The demon's stir
The tears go uncried

[Post-Chorus]
In the Box
Doin' time
In the Box
Just like doin' time
In the Box
Doin' time
In the Box
[Outro]
Minds are locked down

Minds are locked down

Minds are locked down
