[Verse 1] I got a box in the future Sealed up tight with a silver latch It says my name in marker And it hums when I touch it back It sits on the top shelf By the old receipt jar Like it knows my secrets Like it traveled too far I hear it at midnight A little tap-tap-tap Like a pulse in the hallway Calling me back [Pre-Chorus] What you hiding What you saving Tell me now Tell me now If it's mine Then don't keep waiting Tell me now Tell me now [Chorus] Future box, open slow Future box, let it go Future box, what you know? (what you know?) Future box, take me home Future box, leave me whole Future box, don't leave me alone (don't leave me alone) [Verse 2] I tried to shake it It stayed heavy and warm Like a storm in a cardboard Like a dress in a dorm There's a corner dented From the day that you left And a sticker half-peeled Holding on to what's left I keep thinking maybe It's a letter from me Maybe a map to the hurt I was too scared to see Maybe it's a key ring Maybe a ring of gold Maybe the sound of my heart When it finally gets told [Pre-Chorus] What you hiding What you saving Tell me now Tell me now If it's mine Then don't keep waiting Tell me now Tell me now [Chorus] Future box, open slow Future box, let it go Future box, what you know? (what you know?) Future box, take me home Future box, leave me whole Future box, don't leave me alone (don't leave me alone) [Bridge] If it's a scar I'll wear it If it's a goodbye I'll bear it If it's my name Say it clear If it's the truth Bring it here I can take the ache I can take the light Just don't keep my tomorrow Out of sight [Final Chorus] Future box, open slow Future box, let it go Future box, what you know? (what you know?) Future box, take me home Future box, leave me whole Future box, don't leave me alone (don't leave me alone) Future box, open slow Future box, let it go Future box, I need hope (I need hope) [Outro] Future box Future box Future box Open slow
