lyrics

i could make a brand new friend
but it won't matter in the end
that box steals souls
that box steals souls
from the marshes to the shoals
all the people it controls
that box steals souls

i could try to make things right
but i won't even catch your sight
that box steals souls
that box steals souls
from the woodlands to the knolls
from the schoolhouse to the polls
that box steals souls

we could try to make a home
but your mind will rove and roam
that box steals souls
that box steals souls
from your last few dreams and goals
to the way your eyes go dull
that box steals souls

when we were young, we used to sing
but its tendrils got on everything
when we were young, we used to sing
but its tendrils got on everything

i could try to move with pride
but it's all rotting from inside
that box steals souls
that box steals souls
from the way we lived before--
i can't remember anymore
that box steals souls
