lyrics

packed myself in boxes my whole life long
not sure of where they'll go
random shiny treasures catch my eye each time I go to unpack them and
make room
for something brand new I always wanted

as I finally cut the tape and look inside
I find a bounty
of optimistic plans put on hold
coffee-stained and torn into pieces

it's not the right fit
I'm not in the right place at the moment
please check back again sometime before leaving for good

is it just me
can anyone hear my screaming echoing inside these empty promises I made to myself

is it too late
can I snap out of this stumble
falling forward years in time before I get my step back
why's it so hard
why can't I admit how I'm dealing
not the only person who has tried to deceive themself before

packed myself in boxes my whole life long
not sure of where they'll go

Taking Shape
by Kaisa's Machine

supported by 5 fans who also own “Boxes”

This album captivated me quickly. The listener can hear the high energy of New York through their instrumentation and I love It! One example of this I throughly enjoy is their implementation of accelerando (speeding up the tempo) throughout songs. If you enjoy contemporary jazz this album is worth your attention. Wes Wood

Daring Mind
by Jihye Lee Orchestra

supported by 5 fans who also own “Boxes”

I wouldn't call myself a jazz fan, but occasionally I'm grabbing some genre highlights, when I feel like it. Fusion, big band, and piano trios are among the most frequent purchases in this respect, and this exciting album by composer and arranger Jihye Lee represents the sunniest sides of the vast territory of big band jazz.
