If you could fit the fears of man inside a box,
And swallowed the keys after you twisted all the locks,
Could you ever be so cruel?

Imagine a life where all the happiness is drained.
Where dreams are crushed and hope is black and stained.
Would you call this man a fool?

Pandora,
You have shattered everything that was pure
Just by releasing what was locked inside.
Pandora,
Because of you, his answers, remain obscure.
You sneaky little girl,
His dreams have all but died.

Let's say this man of passion was led astray,
Swept off his feet on the winds of yesterday.
Is that what life has to give?
His smiles, like a statue, hide apprehension.
All the things that drag him down he keeps them fenced in.
This is what he does just to live.

Pandora,
You have shattered everything that was pure
Just by releasing what was locked inside.
Pandora,
Because of you, his answers, remain obscure.
You sneaky little girl,
His dreams have all but died.

Let my open arms destroy this insecurity.
When all else fails you can come to me.
Ignore what's in the box.
You control the locks.
This silly girl is nothing but a fable.

Pandora,
You tried to shatter everything that was pure
Just by releasing what was locked inside.
Pandora,
Because of you, your story, remains obscure.
You sneaky little girl,
Your dreams have all but died.
