This was sort of the song that got the ball rolling for the EP. I was making music but didn’t have an engineer, so I sent a demo around a handful of creatives I knew; and then came along Xandrey. The mastermind behind bringing all of this together.

[Verse 1]
Where did the time go?
February to April
They took you home just to send you away
In a crowd of balloons to guide you safe
People smiled and they drank, but I stood and stared
Tryna find you, way up there (Oh, oh)
[Chorus]
Trapped in a box (Oh, oh, oh)
Within arms reach (Oh, oh, oh)
Closed my eyes, you were gone
Now I talk to the tree (Oh, oh, oh)
Now I talk to the tree (Oh, oh, oh)
[Verse 2]
And I pray each night as I look for your star
That you'll fall back down, right in to my arms
But you've grown and you'll barely fit
And you have your wings, there's no point in this
You should fly, you should leave
Find a place you can breathe
I'll be fine, you don't need to watch over me
[Chorus]
Trapped in a box (Oh, oh, oh)
Within arms reach (Oh, oh, oh)
Closed my eyes, you were gone
Now I talk to the tree (Oh, oh, oh)
Now I talk to the tree (Oh, oh, oh)
Trapped in a box (Now I talk to the tree)
Within arms reach (Oh, oh, oh)
Closed my eyes, you were gone
Now I talk to the tree (Oh, oh, oh)
Trapped in a box (Now I talk to the tree)
Within arms reach (Oh, oh, oh)
Closed my eyes, you were gone
Now I talk to the tree (Oh, oh, oh)
[Outro]
Trapped in a box, now I talk to the tree
Trapped in a box
