Pandoras Box

changing the rules changing realities listing the rules color coded names and numbers take me away replace the whole charade never mention it and cash it all in for a trade worry free list of names forwarned with a package three days before the curse maybe you wil give it up try again wash your hands clean of this oxymoron parade the clowns on april fools day the numbers before the lottery back against the wall the clowns all face it eventually nice way to kick the bucket what a wow euphemism what a trumpet lady blue picking the flesh off the bones make it easier if i could but we ressurect the reason for the abstract itmes inside this box a secret hiding place clues to find me amidst a headless blunder bleeding in the screams of irony doubting good intentions sell it all double entent agent come clean force you in the wide open and the cats back in the bag ring the bell and the box stays closed now deal with the envelope stay in my shadow lick the stamp names and numbers what game of thuinder tru to the color im losing the value of the ships im sinking never made me wonder will i sleep good tonight quivering on the streets im falling asleep will they find me replace the secret with the magic replace the magic with the tragic string them along knock by knock one good turn and ring the bell
