Rectangular Box

When you're stuck at home
There all alone
And no one's allowed to go out
You can't form a plan
Pass time best you can
Can't take much more of the doubt
I open my screen
Search in between
All my work still expected to do
I find a room
A 2D Sonic boom
Full of voices and songs what's to lose

I'm safe and afar
You can't see my flaws
Or hear my noises I mute when you talk
I'm just a face, taking up space
In my very own rectangular box

I get to peek
Week after week
From my own little room with a view
I can look in your eyes
And you don't realize
What might actually uncover the truth
I'm completely aware
That I'm enjoying my stare
Without it even looking so strange
Your voice sounds so clear
Makes me wish you were here
Funny feelings I just can't explain

I'm safe and afar
You can't see my flaws
Or hear my noises I mute when you talk
I'm just a face, taking up space
In my very own rectangular box

Just then, mid sip into my tea
As if I'd found a secret key
No way this feeling could just be
Only happening to me
That someone else's little box
Might also be their favorite spot
To watch my eyes and not get caught
Just a little food for thought

How will I greet you
When it's time to meet you
And we finally share the same space
Will I steal a glance
Fall back in a trance
Running back to my old hiding place
Will you be my friend
The one I knew well then
Back when it was safe to just gaze
It's silently unsaid
I'm sure it's all in my head
But I'm hoping that you lead the way

I'm safe and afar
You can't see my flaws
Or hear my noises I mute when you talk
I'm just a face, taking up space
In my very own rectangular
Square and not triangular
Free from gettin' tangled in
In my very own

Cuz I'm safe and afar
You can't see my flaws
Or hear my noises I mute when you talk
I'm just a face, taking up space
In my very own
Rectangular box
