Pandora's Box is an artifact in Greek mythology, taken from the myth of Pandora's creation in Hesiod's Works and Days. The "box" was actually a large jar (πίθος pithos) given to Pandora (Πανδώρα) ("all-gifted", "all-giving"), which contained all the evils of the world. Today, to open Pandora's box means to create evil that cannot be undone.
In classical Greek mythology, Pandora was the first woman on Earth. Zeus ordered Hephaestus, the God of craftsmanship, to create her, so he did—using water and Earth. The gods endowed her with many gifts: Athena clothed her, Aphrodite gave her beauty, and Hermes speech.
When Prometheus stole fire from heaven, Zeus took vengeance by presenting Pandora to Epimetheus, Prometheus' brother. With her, Pandora was given a beautiful container which she was not to open under any circumstance. Impelled by her curiosity given to her by the gods, Pandora opened it, and all evil contained therein escaped and spread over the earth. She hastened to close the container, but the whole contents had escaped, except for one thing that lay at the bottom, which was the angel of Hope named Astrea. Pandora was deeply saddened by what she had done, and was afraid that she would have to face Zeus' wrath, since she had failed her duty; however, Zeus did not punish Pandora; because he knew this would happen.
Perfect, perfect body
And a broken nose
Perfect body and two black eyes
Oh don't remind me
I'm right, i'm right behind you
Inside that pandora's box
Was a can of worms
You'll milk that shaved head you move like an insect
I'm right behind you
I'm right behind you
Unholy hotel
What a place to sleep
And that chemical smell
But i'm geting mine
Right there behind you
I'm right, i'm right behind you
Inside that pandora's box
Was a can of worms
You'll milk that shaved head you move like an insect
I'm right behind you
I'm right behind you
That ocean's not so deep
That water's not so dark
Flood of water, bitter sea
That did you like you needed me
Perfect, perfect angel
With a dirty mouth
A perfect angel
But i'm gonna fry
Right there behind
I'm right, i'm right behind you
Inside that pandora's box
Was a can of worms
You'll milk that shaved head you move like an insect
I'm right behind you
I'm right behind you
That ocean's not so deep
That water's not so dark
Flood of water, bitter sea
When the light goes out tonite
See a golden path of dreams
Seeing things that never should be seen
mistaken fantasy for real
Shark infested waters of my mind
Devouring everything in sight
It's like a dog that has a bone
And won't let go till it's done
Chorus:
With one wave of the hand the final curtain fell
She'd like to meet him, wasted so much time
No point in waiting till the planets align
Open Pandora's box she said
Just don't know what's kept in there
Open Pandora's box she said
Just don't know what's kept in there
Open Pandora's box she said
Just don't know what's kept in there
Turns on the radio, turns into someone else
Don't know where she's going but she's going again
Open Pandora's box she said
Just don't know what's kept in there
Open Pandora's box she said
Pick your poison
Pseudo-christian, neo-orthodoxy, false philosophy
Triple-x pornography, lsd, pcp, self idolatry
Listen you can hear the laugh of mephistropheles
'cause once you start it's so very hard to cease
To say the least it's hard enough to keep it from increase
That's the box you can never close it once it's open
You can't contain what's inside once the seal is broken.
Chorus:
Who knocked the locks off of pandora's box
Praise apostate while they mock the orthodox
The box was opened first by adam and eve
Forbidden fruit tasted and planted the seed
Grew up into hatred, lust and greed
The pain of cain and his devious deed
It permeates society circling like a vulture
The lid's flung wide and we call it our culture
That's the box you can never close it once it's open
You can't comtain what's inside once the seal is broken
Like frozen dolls contained,
She stole all their tongues
And left a tasteless stain on the breath of their lungs
Encased and on display
(They) Spoke as if they were God
We won't navigate this maze
Look back, the roads we made were grey
Look inward for error, and outward thereafter
It's for the best
Refused by knocks and tests,
Pandora's box left me the key
She brought reason to my eyes
To find the time to rest,
Where many men received defeat
Stranded by their own devices
The bane of the mariner
The tooth of the sea
It's all just the same element in the end (Am I foe or friend?)
Through water your livelihood, and ice words your defeat
We won't navigate this maze
Look back, the roads we made were grey
Look inward for error, and outward thereafter
It's for the best
Refused by knocks and tests,
Pandora's box left me the key
She brought reason to my eyes
To find the time to rest,
Where many men received defeat
Stranded by their own devices
Now on your back, this cold will make your grave
And fore the box had closed
She brought reason to my eyes
And said she stole their words
Because they failed their own, they failed their own advice
Take back what we have found in this world
What's left is all that we have deserved
And all we have is this punishment (For all of our)
For all our sin
Refused by knocks and tests
Pandora's box left me the key
She brought reason to my eyes
She brought reason [x3]
Born in Kansas on an ordinary plain
Ran to New York but ran away from fame
Only seventeen when all your dreams came true
But all you wanted was someone to undress you
And all the stars you kissed
Could never ease the pain
Still the grace remains
The face has changed and it's still the same
And it's a long long way
From where you want to be
And it's a long long road
But you're too blind to see
Frame of silence
Of an innocence divine
Is a dangerous creation
When you fail the test of time
And all the photographs
Of ghosts of long ago
Still they hurt you so
Won't let you go
And you still don't know
And it's a long long way
From where you want to be
And it's a long long road
But you're too blind to see
When you look around yourself now
Do you recognize the girl?
The one who broke a thousand hearts
Terrified the world
And all the stars you kissed
Could never ease the pain
And if the face has changed
The grace remains and you're still the same
And it's a long long way
From where you want to be
And it's a long long road
But you're too blind to see
And it's a long long way
From where you want to be
And it's a long long road
And you're too blind to see
And it's a long long way
From where you want to be
And it's a long long road
And you're too blind to see
And it's a long long way
From where you want to be
Love is a dangerous game to play with
A battle where only one side wins
A toy that is so easily broken
Rules that are only make believe
The loser a doll you once held so close
Now left unguarded in a forgotten room
The winner a cheat whose mind's on other things
Unrelentant from the beginning
Evil clowns in the hall.
Crucified adults are hung on the ceiling around,
And a sorceress fights
Genies descended from heaven.
Magical, mystical
Fountains with human blood.
She looks in the mirror; what does she see?
Her mother making tea for noon
She unleashed an evil force.
It may seem the world will fall in days.
Evil's free.
Unleashing the power that hides in Pandora
Is the first step of seven that leads you to hell.
Little girl held the box.
All her fantasies would soon
Be transcended to life.
What could be there inside?
She was obsessed by her treasure.
Magical, mystical.
What did she see inside?
Her blue little eyes were longing to see
Strange voices calling from long ago.
She unleashed an evil force.
It may seem the world will fall in days.
Evil's free.
Unleashing the power that hides in Pandora
Is the first step of seven that leads you to hell.
Julie, what you do can affect us all.
When the box is open wide
Nothing will be the same again.
Reach out for love
Fight for life.
Hiding there alone inside:
A girl without a memory.
Dark is all around,
But people dream of sunset horizons.
The world has fallen.
The seven headed beast is collecting the souls.
She unleashed an evil force.
It may seem the world won't be the same.
Evil reign.
Unleashing the power that hides in Pandora
Is the first step of seven that leads you to hell.
Julie, what you do can affect us all.
Hiding from the world outside:
A girl without a memory.
Dark is all around,
But people dream of sunset horizons.
This is the final turning around.
The world has fallen.
Pandora's box step inside pandora's box i don't mind
Steal this very moment
Dive right through the sea
Pandora's box stay away pandora's box stay with me
Feel this tides emotion twist inside of me
Writhing sensation
Come watch over me
Beautiful tragic warriors go cascading from the sky
Pandora's box pulls me under
Pandora's box makes me wonder
See it shine
Look inside
You can't hide
From me
Beautiful tragic warriors go cascading from the sky
when I'm in heat and someone gets a notion
I jump to my feet, I hoof it to the ocean
we hit a beach where no one give a hoot
nobody never ever wears a suit
the ladies there, they look so proud
that's cause they know that their well endowed
I ain't much on Fannie's conversation
or care to much about her operation
but every time Pandora come my way
I get high, can't explain the sensation
to get it on I got to watch what I say
or I'll catch hell from the women's liberation
sweet Pandora
godlike aura
smellin' like a flora
open up your door-a for me
sweet Pandora
mama crack a smile for me
just for me
now I ain't what you'd call a city slicker
Born in Kansas on an ordinary plain
Ran to New York but ran away from fame
Only seventeen when all your dreams came true
But all you wanted was someone to undress you
And all the stars you kissed could never ease the pain
Still the grace remains, the face has changed
And you? re still the same
And it? s a long, long way from where you want to be
Well, it? s a long, long road and you? re too blind to see
Frame of silence of an innocent divine
Is a dangerous creation when you fail the test of time
And all the photographs of ghosts of long ago
Still they hurt you, so won? t let you go
And you still don? t know
And it? s a long, long way from where you want to be
Well, it? s a long, long road and you? re too blind to see
When you look around yourself now
Do you recognize the girl?
The one who broke a thousand hearts
Terrified the world
And all the stars you kissed could never ease the pain
Lift the face has changed, the grace remains
And you? re still the same
And it? s a long, long way from where you want to be
Well, it? s a long, long road and you? re too blind to see
And it? s a long, long way from where you want to be
Well, it? s a long, long road and you? re too blind to see
And it? s a long, long way from where you want to be
Well, it? s a long, long road and you? re too blind to see
Ah, come on, come on, let me tell you all about it.
We've got all the time in the world.
That's good,
That's nice...
I've been dreaming up a storm lately
Over and over again
And now I can't stop, can't stop...
Been dreaming about mirrors.Millions of mirrors.
An endless army af mirrors out of control, reflecting people to death.
To blindness and then death.
Oh and the mirrors kept getting larger.
They kept growing... swelling...
They kept spreading outAnd now I can't seem to stop them.
They're still growing and I can't seem to stop them.
I have to keep filling them up,
I have to keep feeding them
And they're still getting larger!And larger!!!
The mirrors have become vast and beautiful
And very, very hungry.
Hungrier than I've ever been.
Too hungry.
I no longer have any control over what they show me or what they see.
They decide themselves what they would like to reflect.
They won't obey me!!!
They create a reflection and thenI have to go out and find the real thing that matches it.
And almost always when I put the real thing in front of the mirrors
It's not nearly as beautiful as the reflection that came first.
And at that point I have to destroy the real thing
And go out looking again until finally
I find another real thing,A thing that does match what's inside the mirror
and which is truly worthy of the beautiful reflection that came first.
But I almost never find it.
And the mirrors get even hungrier.
Pretty soon now they're going to devour me.
They're going to swallow me upPiece by piece,Bit by bit, shiver by shiver, tremble by tremble,Sliver and sliver and splinter by splinter...
But you can help me, please.
They want you, please.
They've given me your image.
Before I ever saw you they gave me you image.
Please.I'd like to make you one of my reflections
And feed you to the mirrors.
Please.
They only need one more to fill them up
And if it were you I feel that they would be satisfied.As I would.
Please.You have such a beautiful reflection...
Don't ever waste it.
Now....
And I never really sleep anymore
And I always get those dangerous dreams
And I never get a minute of peace
And I gotta wonder what it means
And I gotta wonder what it means
Maybe it's nothing and I'm under the weather
Maybe it's just one of those bugs going round
Maybe I'm under a spell and it's magic
Maybe there's a witch doctor with an office in town
Is this a blessing or is it a curse?
Does it get any better? Can it get any worse?
Will it go on forever? Or is it over tonight?
Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the light?
Is it richer than diamonds?
Or just a little cheaper than spit?
I don't know what it is but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is but it just won't quit
And there used to be such an easy way of living
And there used to be every hope every joy
And I used to get everything that I went after
But there never used to be this boy
But there never used to be this boy
Maybe I'm crazy and I'm losing my senses
Maybe I'm possessed by a spirit or such
Maybe I'm desperate and I've got no defenses
Can you get me a prescription for that one perfect touch?
Is this a blessing or is it a curse?
Does it get any better? Can it get any worse?
Will it go on forever? Or is it over tonight?
Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the light?
It's a stairway to heaven or a subway going down to the pits
I don't know what it is but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is but it just won't quit
Is this a blessing or is it a curse?
Does it get any better? Can it get any worse?
Will it go on forever? Or is it over tonight?
Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the light?
Is it richer than diamonds?
Or just a little cheaper than spit?
I don't know what it is but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is but it just won't quit
There was a time when nothing ever really mattered
There was a time when there was nothing I didn't know
There was a time when I knew just what I was living for
There was a time and the time was long ago
There was a time and the time was so long ago
If light were dark and dark were light
The moon a black hole in the blaze of night
A raven's wing as bright as tinThen you, my love
So what if they're talking
Making up the excuses for the abuses they perform on you
And as I live your child will be born with his brain on top it's tiny head
And as I breathe they're telling you it's to with being inbred
And of course it's not plutonium that cause pandemonium
And everything under the sun must be for everyone
Everyone living under a gun must be someone
And everything under the sun must be for someone
And everyone living under a gun must be
Don't fuck with Pandora's Box or don't make it so obvious
Do as you would be done by do as you would be don't buy it
Do as you would be done by do as you would be but don't buy it
And as I live and breathe this great bug fucking thing
Hanging over my head I think
And you talk outspoken forthright political and erudite
Pub politic with all it's drunken hindsight that never achieved anything
And everything under the sun must be for everyone
Everyone living under a gun must be
Everything under the sun must be for someone
And everyone living under a gun must be
And don't fuck with Pandora's Box or don't make it so obvious
Do as you would be done by do as you would be but don't buy it
Do as you would be done by do as you would be but don't buy it
And everything under the sun must be for everyone
Everyone living under a gun must be
Everything under the sun must be for someone
I've been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I've done all the old ones
Till they've all been done in
Now I'm just looking
Then I'm gone with the wind
Endlessly searching for an original sin
You can dance forever
You got a fire in your feet
But will it ever be enough?
You know that it'll never be enough
You can fly and never land
And never need to sleep
But will it ever be enough?
You know that it'll never be enough
It's not enough to make the nightmares go away
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
It's not enough to live a little better every day
Everything that they taught usWas nothing but lies
Everything that they bought usWas nothing but bribes
But it'll all be over now
All I wanted was a piece of the night
I never got an equal share
When the stars are out of sightAnd the moon is down
The natives are so restless tonight
All I needed was a spot in the light
It never had to get so dark
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down
The natives are so restless tonight
The natives are so restless tonight
I've been looking for the ultimate crime
Infinite victims, infinitessimal time
And I'm so very guilty for no reason or rhyme
So now I'm just looking
And killing some time
Endlessly searching for the ultimate crime
You can lose yourself in pleasure
Till your body's going numb
But will it ever be enough?
You know that it'll never be enough
You can always take whatever
You conceivably could want
But will it ever be enough?
You know that it'll never be enough
It's not enough to make the nightmares go away
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
It's not enough to live a little better every day
Everything that they taught us
Was nothing but lies
Everything that they bought us
Was nothing but bribes
But the lies are over now
All I wanted was a piece of the night
I never got an equal share
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down
The natives are so restless tonight
All I wanted was a spot in the light
It never had to get so dark
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down
The natives are so restless tonight
I've been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I've done all the old ones
Till they've all been done in
Now I'm just looking
Then I'm gone with the wind
Endlessly searching for an original sin
I'm applying for a license to thrill
Going out on the edge
Moving in for the kill
They'll be hell to pay someday
So put it all on the bill
Cause we'll always be paying
And paying until
We're beyond expiration
There were nights when the wind was so cold
That my body froze in bed
If I just listened to it
Right outside the window
There were days when the sun was so cruel
That all the tear turned to dust
And I just knew my eyes wereDrying up forever
I finished crying in the instant that you left
But I can't remember where or when or how
And I banished every memory you and I had ever made!
But when you touch me like this
And you hold me like that
I just have to admit
That it's all coming back to me
When I touch you like this
And I hold you like that
It's so hard to believe but
It's all coming back to me
It's all coming back
It's all coming back to me now
There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things I'd never do again
But then they always seemed right
There were nights of sacred pleasure
It was more than any laws allow!
Baby, baby
If I kiss you like this
And if you whisper like that
It was lost long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you want me like this
And if you need me like that
It was dead long ago
But it's all coming back to me
It's so hard to resist
And it's all coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it's all coming back to me now
There were those empty threats and hollow lies
And whenever you tried to hurt me
I just hurt you even worse
And so much deeper
There were hours that just went on for days
When alone at last, we'd count up all the chances
That were lost to us
Forever
But you were history with the slamming of the door
And I made myself so strong again somehow
And I never wasted any of my time on you since then!
But if I touch you like this
And if you kiss me like that
It was so long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you touch me like this
And if I kiss you like that
It was gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me
It's all coming back
It's all coming back to me now
There were moments of gold
There were flashes of light
There were things we'd never do again
But then they always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than all your laws allow!
Baby, baby, baby
When you touch me like this
And when you hold me like that
It was gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me
When you see me like this
Then we see what we want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it's all coming back to me now!
If you forgive me of this
If I forgive you of that
We forgive and forget
And it's all coming back to me
When you see me like this
And when I see you like that
We see just what we want to see
All coming back to meThe flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall but it's all coming back to me now...
And when you kiss me like this
When you hold me like that
And if I touch you like this
I never knew so many bad times
Could follow me so mercilessly
It's almost surreal
All the pain that I feel
The future ain't what it used to be
It doesn't matter what they're thinking
It doesn't matter what they're thinking of me
It's always so cold
I'm to young to be old
The future ain't what it used to be
Were there ever any stars in the sky
Did the sun ever shine so bright?
Do you have any dreams I could borrow
Just to get me through the lonely night?
Is there anything left to hold on to
When the rivers wash it all away?
Is there anyone left to hold on to
Is there anything left I can say?
Say a prayer for the falling angels
Stem the tide of the rising waters
Toll a bell for the broken hearted
Burn a torch for your sons and daughters
The endless night has got a hold of me
Dark days are pulling me forward
And all the tears are washing over me
I'm crying, lost forever
In a future that ain't what it used to be
No more no more no more
It's like a storm that's never ending
It's like a shadow on the land and the sea
There's nothing as sad as
A tomorrow gone bad
The future ain't what it used to be
Some days I feel so numb and empty
And those would be the good days for me
Nothing gets to me now
Unless I'm thinking of how
The future ain't what it used to be
Is there anything left to hold on to
When the rivers wash it all away?
Is there anyone left to hold on to
Is there anything left I can say?
Say a prayer for the falling angels
Stem the tide of the rising waters
Toll a bell for the broken hearted
Burn a torch for your sons and daughters
The endless night has got a hold of me
Dark days are pulling me forward
And all the tears are washing over me
I'm crying, lost forever
In a future that ain't what it used to be
No more no more no more
The future just ain't what it used to be
It's never gonna be like it was
The future just ain't what it used to be
I wish it wouldn't come but it does
Why does each journey start with an unknown course?
Why do so many prayers remain unheard?
How can we explain, without to undertand?
And what does it means, when all comes to an end?
Is knowing worth the price it costs, to stare inside Pandora's box?
Does yearning means to guide us to the knowledge of the paradox?
Who decides which life is worth to fight?
When do we finally come to own insight?
What kind of choice does really make a sense?
And where can we find our way to discernment?
Is knowing worth the price it costs, to stare inside Pandora's box?
God, oh please bear with me, as you're looking from above
Elementary question: what do you take as love?
Badlands all around me, I got animal inside
God oh please forgive me for my sins
And for I enjoy this ride
Woe to you o earth and flood
For the devil sends the beast
Tell your dreaming son about the rain to come
Make him rescue us by sea
Creeping, crawling on all fours
It's down to push and shove
The juggernaut is full, let's close the doors
And the ride is on
Wastelands are waiting to be found another day
Ride across the ocean, fly by the stars
Pandora's Box is under weigh
Turmoil on the pleasure boat, the pigeon can't be seen
Look! The serpent's shape bespeaks: the problem lies within
On this sea of sadness, unknown destination sought
But we cross your shady ocean on our Yacht
And the ride is on
Wastelands are waiting to be found another day
Ride across the ocean, we fly by the stars
Pick your poison
Pseudo-christian, neo-orthodoxy, false philosophy
Triple-x pornography, lsd, pcp, self idolatry
Listen you can hear the laugh of mephistropheles
'cause once you start it's so very hard to cease
To say the least it's hard enough to keep it from increase
That's the box you can never close it once it's open
You can't contain what's inside once the seal is broken.
Chorus:
Who knocked the locks off of pandora's box
Praise apostate while they mock the orthodox
The box was opened first by adam and eve
Forbidden fruit tasted and planted the seed
Grew up into hatred, lust and greed
The pain of cain and his devious deed
It permeates society circling like a vulture
The lid's flung wide and we call it our culture
That's the box you can never close it once it's open
You can't comtain what's inside once the seal is broken
I feel like screaming
My mind is burning
You can see the pain in my face
I wish I could be in a different place
Marks on my back
Because of this alien attack
No one believes me
Try to turn the key
When I open Pandora’s box
I saw my live in a shock
Life isn’t always fun
So Rock On
Standing in the black sea
Waves are higher then me
Oh my god
Why can’t you see?
A swarm of bees
Trying to sting me
My mind is turning 180 degrees
Finally I can see the sun is shining at me
When I open Pandora’s box
I saw my live in a shock
Life isn’t always fun
So Rock On
Everything that was black is pink
I’m trying to think
That life isn’t so bad
So I’m glad to hear that
Doors are reopening
And the clouds are disappearing
The wind blows true my hair
This was my last prayer
When I open Pandora’s box
I saw my live in a shock
Life isn’t always fun
Rock On
I feel like screaming
My mind is burning
You can see the pain in my face
I wish I could be in a different place
Marks on my back
Because of this alien attack
No one believes me
Try to turn the key
When I open Pandoras box
I saw my live in a shock
Life isnt always fun
So Rock On
Standing in the black sea
Waves are higher then me
Oh my god
Why cant you see?
A swarm of bees
Trying to sting me
My mind is turning 180 degrees
Finally I can see the sun is shining at me
When I open Pandoras box
I saw my live in a shock
Life isnt always fun
So Rock On
Everything that was black is pink
Im trying to think
That life isnt so bad
So Im glad to hear that
Doors are reopening
And the clouds are disappearing
The wind blows true my hair
This was my last prayer
When I open Pandoras box
I saw my live in a shock
Life isnt always fun
[Verse 1]
Neighbors heard the noises, me I heard the voices
He was all up in ha, pockets full of trojan
Probably a gold digga, threw his shovel down in ha
Didn't stop mining til he struck gold
20 minutes ago there wasn't red on the floor
Knock knock, who's there, murder atchur door
Murder who? Murder me? Murder me and you
Everyone told you to watch it guess you threw your clock it
Suppose to look both ways before crossing the street
This guy was the avenue you closed your eyes indeed
Let him in your home what the fuck were you thinking
A tie and suit doesn't mean a man's the truth
[Chorus]
No one heard me cry
Who committed the crime, who dare touch what's mine
Hear my fears inside
Who broke in and wiped the innocence off her eyes
[Verse 2]
Your body was the truth and this man had you lying
Tears down your lips had your pussy crying
Peak a boo this ghost had you peaking
The gallon of terror now began leaking
It was leaking to my crib yea I had to dip
Running up the stairs making sure that I don't trip
Throwing myself at the door that shit don't wanna open
Climbed the fire escape, shattered glasses windows broken
[Chorus]
No one heard me cry
Who committed the crime, who dare touch what's mine
Hear my fears inside
Who broke in and wiped the innocence off her eyes
[Verse 3]
Lost in your home where do I begin
Reckless everywhere trail of blood had no end
Blood on the sofa, where we had our first kiss
Blood in the kitchen, where I cooked ha favorite dish
Found you in that bedroom, theirs a Niqqah dead too
His heart was in his culo, yea he was dead ass
I look at you and cry all you hadda do was listen
Half hour earlier you still couldve been living
The times we had those dates were bad
Baby your so beautiful
Always in charge, your battery was durable
I touch you one last time as I say good bye
(Why? Why? Why why! I fucking loved you)
I look at where I stand, blood on my pants
Cuts and bruises, gun in my hand
I look in the mirror, reflection of the killa
I guess I'm goinga hell bitch I'll see you later!
[Chorus]
No one heard me cry
I committed the crime, no one touch what's mine
Hear my fears inside
When the wind is howling through your window pane
It's not the only pain of the night
You're burning up in your bed, you got a fever of love
And there's not an anti-body in sight
Hey Jenny, Jenny
Why are you crying?
There's a beauty of a moon in the sky
But I guess when you've been leading such a sheltered life
You never lift your head and look so high
You don't have a lot
But it's all that you got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Give it a shot
Fantasize every movement and
Imagine every inch of your dream
No one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feelIt ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good girls go to heaven
But the bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven
Bad girls go everywhere
Somebody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayer
I'll be praying that theGood girls go to heaven
But the bad girls go everywhere
When the sweat is sizzling on your skin in the dark
And you're desperate now for somewhere to turn
Every muscle in rebellion
Every nerve is on edge
And every limb has been erotically burned
Hey Johnny, Johnny
Why are you shaking?
When a boy should do whatever he can
You've been nothing but an angel
Every day of your life
And now you wonder what it's like to be damned
You don't have a lot
But it's all that you've got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Give it a shot
Fantasize every movement and
Imagine every inch of your dream
No one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you've been wanting to feelIt ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good boys go to heaven
But the bad boys go everywhere
Good boys go to heaven
Bad boys go everywhere
Somebody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayer
I'll be praying that the
Good boys go to heaven
But the bad boys go everywhere
Every time I try and dream you
I can't believe how hard it's been to
Conjure up your face and trace your body in the air
All the seconds go on forever
But the thirds and the fourth ones are even better
Every time I do it just a little bit longer
Every time I dream it's just a little bit stronger
Than real life
No one said it had to be real
But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feelIt ain't right
It ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good girls go to heaven
But the bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven
Bad girls go everywhere
Somebody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayer
I'll be praying that the
Good girls go to heaven
I was blind at first
Now it’s becoming very clear
That you’ve lost all common sense
(Without a clue)
My mind’s been cursed
Since the moment you appeared
I’ll turn to ashes from your torment
[Pre-chorus:]
We were going nowhere fast
This wasn’t meant to last
[Chorus:]
I can’t look at you the same
Your face turns sunny days to gray
I can’t stand to hear your name
I’ll move a thousand miles away
You were a treasure with several locks
I’ve finally found the keys
But I’ve opened Pandora’s box
[Post Chorus:]
(I’ve lost all interest)
It’s your loss
(You’ve failed to impress)
I’m better off
Take your time (take your time)
Not like it mattered anyways
You’ll always be so self-absorbed
(You think of yourself)
I can’t make you mine
You’re like a never-ending maze
You’re just someone I can’t afford
[Pre-chorus 2:]
We were going nowhere fast
(Going nowhere fast)
This wasn’t meant to last
[1st Bridge:]
Does it look like just a game?
Another victim you can claim?
Go on and roll the dice
You’re a disease without a cure
Another sickness to severe
Your heart’s as cold as ice
[2nd Bridge:]
You’re my poison
You’re the type that destroys one
Keeping both my hands tied
Open wide for self-destruction
Infecting,
You come with no detecting,
Waiting for the right time
Too many roads with too many cars
Too many windows with too many bars
Too many doors with too many locks
That's why I wanna get out of
Pandora's box
I just wanna got out of
Pandora's box
You know that you dance, you know that you sing
You know that you give you most anything
You know that you real you you now that you lost?
That's why I wanna get out of
Pandora's box
I just wanna got out of
Pandora's box
Pandora, how I adore ya
Pandora, let me explore ya
Its not excitement I want, or danger I crave
Don't want to be king, don't want to be a slave
More precious to me than all the gold in fort knox
Is lovely little
Pandora's box
I just want to get out of
Pandora's box
If I had known of what would come
I might have walked outta here a lot less harmed
But I'm no lady of the glass
And I can't foretell what will pass
And I went with my defenses down
As your love sent me spinning, spinning 'round
Oh you took me to the very top
And then I took a bad and long, long drop
Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all I ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up Pandora's Box
Oh promises are made to bend and stretch, oh
And end up being really worthless
And oh when I opened up the door to you
I opened up Pandora's Box
Just one look and I knew you knew
I was all hung up, hung up on loving you
I just put all my trust in love
And I placed a big old bet on lady love
I was sentenced to loving you
And I'm serving time in solitude
Yeah I gave ya everything that I got
And you took it all and walked right off
Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all I ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up Pandora's Box
Oh promises are made to bend and stretch, oh
And end up being really worthless
And oh when I opened up the door to you
I opened up Pandora's Box
Just one look and I knew you knew
I was all hung up, hung up on loving you
I just put all my trust in love
And I placed a big old bet on lady love
Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all I ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up Pandora's box
Oh promises are made to bend and stretch, oh
And end up being really worthless
And oh when I opened up the door to you
I opened up Pandora's Box
Oh promises are made to be broken
That's all I ever learned from loving you
And oh when you opened up your love to me
You opened up Pandora's Box
Oh promises are made to bend and stretch oh
And end up being really worthless
And oh when I opened up the door to you
No one ever said I was a gullible girl
I don't believe everything that I'm told
I've been around and I know the ropes
And I won't get fooled again
I don't believe in no fairy tales
I don't believe in the man in the moon
And no pot of gold or anything else
Is waiting at the rainbow's end
I got no illusions now, I guess I lost them long ago
You're not gonna get me with this, cause I already know
Baby there's no such thing
Baby it just ain't true
And there's no such thing as safe sex
When it comes to loving you
There's always the danger of losing control
And of breaking my heart and exposing my soul
There's just no protection from that look in your eyes
Or the touch of your hands when I break down and cry
There's always the risk of surrendering more
Than I ever intended to do
And there's no such thing as safe sex
When it comes to loving you
I don't believe in the boogie man
I don't believe in no pie in the sky
You can wish upon a star until the stars are gone
That doesn't mean it's really so
There's no such thing as a Santa Claus
There's no such thing as getting money for nothing
And no yellow brick road is gonna take you there
Wherever you've been trying to go
We'll never be as young as thisNo matter how we try, we grow
You're not such an innocent boyAnd I already know
Baby there's no such thing
Baby it just ain't true
And there's no such thing as safe sex
When it comes to loving you
There's always the danger of giving too much
Love is often a drug
Love is often a crutch
There's no guarantee I can handle it all
The higher the climb
The longer the fall
There's always the danger of losing control
And of breaking my heart and exposing my soul
There's just no protection from that look in your eyes
Or the touch of your hands when I break down and cry
There's always the risk of surrendering more
Than I ever intended to do
And there's no such thing as safe sex
When it comes to loving you
While horsemen ride across the green
And snow white still remains unseen.
Pegasus, the winged horse,
Relays his messages by morse.
And like some pirate sailor
We crossed the spanish main
And brought our magic carpet
To a marble staircased plain.
While handel plays his melody
Doctors cause uncertainty
And though I know the lifeguard's brave
There is no one for him to save.
And like some pirate sailor
We crossed the spanish main
And brought our magic carpet
To a marble staircased plain.
Cock robin views his frozen feet
And wraps them in a winding sheet
And calls out for his favourite drink
The persian that's as warm as mink.
And like some pirate sailor
We crossed the spanish main
And brought our magic carpet
