You shriek pandora lyrics

Pandora"

You Shriek



Pandora lies awake with her eyes on the box

She never looks away

She stares and loses time

She beats her fists on the shiny black lid

No noise from within 

It lies there quiet

And still she never leaves the room

Her curtains are drawn



Gonna close my eyes 'cause I never want to see it

And I'd nail it shut but I wouldn't want to lose it

I can shut myself out like you strap yourself in

'cause I know

I know I couldn't be that strong

I know I couldn't be that strong

I know I'll never be that strong



You could reach for the sun and melt into the clouds

That pass away now

Into the night

Spirits spilling out the doors

And through the cracks

I'm waiting



It isn't curiosity or ignorance or

Cherry lips or stinking whores that drive me

To pull out the nails and

Open the doors



Pandora...



She beats her fists on the shiny black lid 

No noise from within it

Lies there quiet and still

Can't you see why I can't lick or breathe

Or think or bleed or laugh or fight

And I know I'm drowning

I know I'm drowning



Gonna close my eyes 'cause I never want to see it

And I'd nail it shut but I wouldn't want to lose it

I can shut myself out like you strap yourself in

'cause I know I couldn't be that strong



Pandora
