PANDORA

Pandora comes today 
As she dazzles and she dances 
You find hope and lose yourself again 
She never stays the same 
She changes moods like summer thunder 
Still you look for sunlight through the rain. 
And when she laughs you see danger 
She can be cold like a stranger 
And you try but you won't change her anyway 
And I can see how she makes it 
It's a game and still you take it 
It's a spell until you break it, you must stay 
And lose yourself again. 

Pandora takes the time 
To tell you stories of her past 
Thet everybody knows just can't be true 
The reason and the rhyme 
Are twisted 'til you can't believe her 
Still you keep pretending that you do. 
And when you try to get to her 
And you tell her you've seen through her 
She'll just say you never knew her anyway 
And you still let her fake it 
It's a game and still you take it 
It's a spell until you break it, you must stay 
And lose yourself again. 

Pandora comes today 
The warning signs flash in her eyes 
The old familiar feelings rise again 
The pleasure and the pain 
Are like two colours run together 
Still you can't go on too long this way. 
If it's a game you can't win it 
I don't know why you stay in it 
You could leave her any minute, any day 
It should be easy to shake it 
But you just can't seem to make it 
It's a spell until you break it, you must stay 
And lose yourself again.
