MisterWives - Box Around The Sun Lyrics






I was just barely holding on
Trying to keep up
I saw no signs of anyone
Box built around the Sun
I thought to sleep the day away
But trees were as dark as the night's weight
How did you hear the drop of my tear
You chase all the fear

You were there for the waking
My soul was sleeping
You woke me, shaking every piece of me
You took me under
Eyes wide to you with wonder
Built me a heartstrong
Carry me on

We find light down any road we take
Feet never seem to break
Unable to feel unstable
And you carry me all the way
I take comfort in your eyes
Keep me feeling safe all the days
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Your presence gives me joy alone
Never do I face the world alone

You were there for the waking
My soul was sleeping
You woke me, shaking every piece of me
You took me under
Eyes wide to you with wonder
Built me a heartstrong
Carry me

On and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
And on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on

Put away the days
When home was what I chased
When love had no space to live
This world we built
Is long past filled
My hands cannot hold on to a shield
My hands cannot hold on to a shield, shield
Hands cannot hold on to a shield, shield
Opened up what I had sealed, sealed
Opened up what I had sealed, sealed

You were there for the waking
My soul was sleeping
You woke me, shaking every piece of me
You took me under
Eyes wide to you with wonder
Built me a heartstrong
Carry me

On and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
And on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on

MisterWives Box Around The Sun Comments
  1. J.... P....

    Is this a religious song? It sounds like that sorta thing...

  2. B.... S....

    It's been a while since I haven't listened to MisterWives but I heard this song in a shop in Tokyo recently! Feels so good to come back to good vibes like these <3

  3. f.... ....

    That opening reminds me of another song but I just can’t think of what it is!

  4. C.... M....

    Yo apenas estaba sosteniendo 
    Tratando de mantenerme 
    No vi señales de nadie 
    Caja construida alrededor del Sol 
    Pensé dormir el día 
    Pero los sueños Estaban tan oscuras como el peso de la noche 
    ¿Cómo oíste la gota de mi lágrima 
    Tú persigues todo el miedo 

    Estuviste allí para el despertar 
    Mi alma estaba Durmiendo 
    Usted me despertó, sacudiendo cada pedazo de mí 
    Usted me tomó debajo de 
    Ojos anchos a usted con maravilla 
    Construyó un corazón fuerte 
    Llévame en 

    Encontramos la luz por cualquier camino que tomemos 
    Los pies nunca parecen romperse 
    No se puede sentir inestable 
    Y me llevas todo el camino 
    Me consuelo en Tus maneras 
    Me mantienes seguro todos los días 
    Oh whoa, tu presencia me da alegría solo 
    Nunca enfrento el mundo solo 

    Estuviste ahí para el 
    Mi alma estaba durmiendo 
    Usted me despertó, sacudiendo cada pedazo de mí 
    Usted me tomó bajo 
    Ojos de par en par a usted con la maravilla 
    Construido me un corazón fuerte < Br /> Llévame 

    Y una y otra 
    Una y otra 
    Una y otra 
    Una y otra y otra y otra y otra < 
    Una y otra vez 
    Una y otra vez 
    Una y otra vez 
    Una y otra vez 

    Guarda el polvo 
    Cuando el hogar es lo que yo perseguía 
    Cuando el amor no tenía espacio para vivir 
    Este mundo que construimos 
    Es largo pasado lleno 
    Mis manos no pueden aferrarse a un escudo 
    Mi Las manos no pueden sujetarse a un escudo, escudo 
    Las manos no pueden sujetarse a un escudo, escudo 
    Abrir lo que había sellado, sellado 
    Abrir lo que había sellado, sellado 

    Estabas ahí para el despertar 
    Mi alma estaba durmiendo 
    Me despertaste, sacudiendo cada pedazo de mi 
    Tú me quitaste 
    Ojos abiertos a ti con maravilla < Br /> Me construyó un corazón fuerte 
    Llévame 

    Y una y otra 
    Una y otra 
    Una y otra 
    On Y en y en y en y sobre y en 
    Y una y otra 
    Una y otra y otra 
    Una y otra y otra 
    Una y otra y otra ¡Bienvenido!

  23. B.... A....

    I was just barely holding on
    Trying to keep up
    I saw no signs of anyone
    Box built around the Sun
    I thought to keep the day away
    But dreams were as dark as the night's weight
    How did you hear the drop of my tear
    You chase all the fear

    You were there for the waking
    My soul was sleeping
    You woke me, shaking every piece of me
    You took me under
    Asked, "Why do you wander?"
    But we are strong
    Carry me on

    We find light down any road we take
    Feet never seem to break
    Unable to feel unstable
    And you carry me all the way
    I take comfort in your ways
    Keep me feeling safe all the days
    Oh whoa, your presence gives me joy alone
    Never do I face the world alone

    You were there for the waking
    My soul was sleeping
    You woke me, shaking every piece of me
    You took me under
    Asked, "Why do you wander?"
    But we are strong
    Carry me on and on and on
    On and on and on
    On and on and on
    On and on and on and on and on
    And on and on
    On and on and on
    On and on and on
    On and on and on

    Put away the dust
    When home is what I chased
    When love had no space to live
    This world we built
    Is long past filled
    My hands cannot hold on to a shield
    My hands cannot hold on to a shield, shield
    Hands cannot hold on to a shield, shield
    Opened up what I had sealed, sealed
    Opened up what I had sealed, sealed

    You were there for the waking
    My soul was sleeping
    You woke me, shaking every piece of me
    You took me under
    Asked, "Why do you wander?"
    But we are strong
    Carry me on and on and on
    On and on and on
    On and on and on
    On and on and on and on and on
    And on and on
    On and on and on
    On and on and on
    On and on and on

    (I wrote these lyrics myself! :D Submit any corrections you have, or if you know what goes in the place of that question mark.)

    B.... A....

    Thanks dude, I've seen your lyrics around on their videos and it's really helping :)

    B.... A....

    @dingus mcdingus me too! !

    B.... A....

    +Blake Adrian I'm sure it's eyes wide to you with wonder instead of asked 'why do you wander?' I'm not sure that's just what I hear

    B.... A....

    Holly Elizabeth that's what I was going to say, but i saw your comment xD it is "eyes wide to you with wonder" not "asked 'why do you wander'"

    B.... A....

    I am rather sure it is: I thought to sleep* the day away but dreams were as dark as a night's way*. I have an explanation of why I believe this. That explanation is in what I believe the lyric is. What I believe it to say is you try to sleep through the day when it is bright hoping for bright dreams but no matter what they will always be dark and (in real life SOMETIMES) nightmarish.
    p.s I know this is late and not at all when it came out but I never actually bothered looking at a comment section for a song. I mean most of it is probably saying they were great and their fans expressing their love

  24. O.... A....

    THIS ALBUM IS WHAT ONE WOULD CALL "FIRE"

    O.... A....

    No, just no. It's awesome, simple as that, no need to drag in the stupid slang of 2015's culture into the act of describing this amazing peice of music....

  25. L.... N....

    Favorite song off of the album!!!

  26. J.... E....

    so many new songs, so happy i might piss my pants.

  27. S.... B....

    I love EVERY song on the album but I think this has to be my favorite

    S.... B....

    Mines Oceans, but I don't like Hurricane that much.

    S.... B....

    This & Oceans are my favorite.

  28. I.... S....

    You guys & echosmith are my favorite bands & it makes me want to cry that I'm not coming to see you in Ohio this Saturday....but anyway I love this song

  29. J.... H....

    Very Bad Suns-esque intro, love the song

  30. S.... ....

    One of the best of the new songs, love it . Love it!!!! Kisses from Brazil.

  31. '.... a....

    Well, this album sounds perfect. MisterWives, you are my new favourite band.

    '.... a....

    From a technical sound point, it sounds horrible.  It's the brick walling "sausage wave form" mastering and overproduced/over edited beat makes it sound like everyother pop song ever made in the past 10 years.  I remember when their facebook page had 400 likes and I'm sure this will accelerate their popularity but its longevity is decreased ten fold when it sounds like everything else.

    '.... a....

    Yeah with Reflections EP they had their on style, with This album the seem to be trying to get popular, maybe when they do they go back do their style

  32. M.... G....

    I looooooooove you, love your voice, your talent, i'm gonna die...

  33. n.... ....

    i love it!🍇

  34. B.... R....

    7 new songs? Is this my birthday or something?

    B.... R....

    actually, it's mine

    B.... R....

    I know right!

    B.... R....

    +fanzaz54 ha ha

  35. R.... ....

    Well time to update my playlists

  36. Z.... S....

    I found MisterWives from finding carter and they have been my favorite band since then. I've been so excited fro this new album and its so freaking good.

    Z.... S....

    Z.... S....

    This is how I found them, too. I literally have not stopped listening to them since.

    Z.... S....
