The Box Comes Home
A drop-tuned, desert-highway groove gives a repair story room to breathe, and this take leans even further into the electric guitar.

Lyrics
I crack no bigger than a fingernail
Let the gel creep in and the signal fade
Now she's riding in a padded crate
Down a long straight highway, come night late
The box comes home, the box comes home
Same old part in a different chrome
Somewhere out there they open the case
Test it, trust it, send it back to grace
Send it back to me
don't just glance and
call it fine They test it over one more time
Some come back at half the cost of new
Some just needed someone who knew
The box comes home, the box comes home
Same old part in a different chrome
Somewhere out there they open the case
Test it, trust it, send it back to gray
Never more than half the price of
new
That's the deal we hold on to
A slow road out, a slow road back
Patience is the only track
The box comes home, the box comes home
Same old part in a different chrome
Somewhere out there they open the case
Test it, trust it, send it back to grace
Rolling home
Rolling slow
