A long time ago when the fire was born
The great Prometheus, well, he started a war
So there was thunder and flames and a bright idea
Create an evil to deceive them, or they won't know to fear
With the grace of the sea, and the mind of the owl
And a smile that would drag all the innocents down
It was so she was born, a beauty to behold
Was married but she carried the box of unforetold
Pandora, what's in the box?
Come little darling, won't you open it's hat?
Let us see beyond that
Pandora, it could be gold
Or honey, wine, or money, gifts from the gods
Or an old man's cat
I ain't a fool, I know you're watching
I know you made me so I can destroy the future
I know my role, I'm just a pawn, see
They say that nothing's made to break, I know what you know
I'm a hopeless, I was sent a deadly omen they can question
Bleeding wonder, but I'll keep it sealed forever, they can cry
Pandora, what's in the box?
Come little darling, won't you open it's hat?
Let us see beyond that
Pandora, it could be gold
Or honey, wine, or money, gifts from the gods
Or an old man's cat
Pandora, what's in the box?
You know we are hiding something magic inside
Come on open our eyes
Pandora, it could be time
Or blessings never-ending, life beyond death
Or an old man's cat
If by chance I knew the ending
If the cat could make a noise
If the answer wasn't bending
Would I know the price of yes and
No it's finite, that's the one truth
But it sits within my lap
Where's the firelight, what's the real use?
If I live by no, I'm trapped
Is it living? is it missing?
Would it kill us all or send us blessings?
This is all a test unless
Within it is the key to mending
Everything I'm thinking, but it's whispering inside my head
I'm sinking, I can't listen to the singing, it's all silence
Is it living? is it missing?
Would it kill us all or send us blessings?
This is all a test unless
Within it is the key to mending
Everything I'm thinking, but it's whispering inside my head
I'm sinking, I can't listen to the singing, it's all silence
I'm a fool, I was sent to
Test the rules and I'll take the blame
It calls, but heed the whispers
Fight them all, it's your fate
Pandora, what's in the box?
Come little darling, won't you open it's hat?
Let us see beyond that
Pandora, it could be gold
Or honey, wine, or money, gifts from the gods
Or an old man's cat
Pandora, what's in the box?
Don't be so stubborn, won't you open it's hat?
Let us see beyond that
Pandora, it could be love
Or fate or heaven's gate, the wrath of the gods
Or an old man's cat
