Pandora

[Chorus]
Pandora told me that everything fits inside
'N hope is everything that she's got left from a different life
I told her 's all about distance 'n time
Existence flies and her life's not different from mine
But she didn't reply
I could see the fear in her eyes
'N then she left without tellin' me why
Her tears just fell from the sky
And washed away the pain and the fear that I'd held in my mind
Let's see what's contained within
'Cause to me the walls of this box are lookin' paper-thin, so
I write content for the discontented
Sittin' here, dreamin' of a different ending

[Interlude]
This is what she told me

[Verse 2]
I wonder what we're doin' with these gifts we were given
As he thinks to himself as he sits by the river
And the endorphins kick as the drink hits his liver
Did you see?
He's a liver of life
And it doesn't mean shit unless you feel it inside
And it won't stop kickin' 'til the rhythm is dyin'. It's life
Contentment
A warm beer on a cold night
And the slow realisation that this is what we talk like
And it's alright
Hittin' home via torchlight
Searchin' for some meanin' at my soul and some foresight
A poor guy, rich
In ways you can't imagine
As his poetry aligns with the stars and the planets
And collides with this madness
This is not a life you can fathom
A universe the size of an atom
Hope is just a little shinin' light in the chasm
And this is just writing and finding that matters
This is trapping lightning in our minds with no cameras
Or bottles, if the world comes toppling down
Well, it used to be ours
What is this sound?
"I love the smell of ink" This is Apocalypse Now

[Chorus]
Pandora told me that everything fits inside
'N hope is everything that she's got left from a different life
I told her 's all about distance 'n time
Existence flies and her life's not different from mine
But she didn't reply
I could see the fear in her eyes
'N then she left without tellin' me why
Her tears just fell from the sky
And washed away the pain and the fear that I'd held in my mind
