Alone in the dark
A shimmering light just appears
Like a box made of steel
Which contains all your fears
Under the sunlight of dreams
It gleams, it gleams
The contents remain
As ever, the same
But the meanings can change
In their intensities, their range
All locked up in a chest
They disturb your rest
Yet inside, deep inside
Life is more than it contains
You always had the key
But you don't know where to begin
To begin look inside
You have it in your heart
Yes it's love not money
That will bring happiness and gain
But the box, oh the box
Why does it pain
It's the world that we live in
A struggle in vain
