I opened up Pandora's box
Easily, it had no locks
Bent my head to look inside
Made my eyeballs open wide
Nothing but a photograph
Surely someone's had a laugh
And under picture, there was written
'By Pandora's bug you have been bitten
You'll find nothing here today
You must find another way
To open up what lays inside
Your heart, for there it all resides'
I took it all as metaphor
What was I really looking for
The photos message plain to see
I closed the box and let it be
To search for secrets then, was wrong
I knew the answer all along
