PANDORA

Words & Music by
Lee Kweller & Leo Schaff

Army facing army
The molten air was still
Hearts beneath a whisper
Ready for the kill

Demons in the canyon
Waiting for the master's call
Fingers at the edge of cliffs
To try and stop the fall

Watching from a window
I could smell the rising dust
Daylight's candle flickered
As the sky turned into rust

A voice cried from the darkness
Only hours left to go
And only fools would try to guess
Which way the wind would blow

Don't you do it
Don't you open up the lid
She led you to it
Who are you tryin' to kid
She's no angel
Sent to heal the bleeding souls
She's PANDORA

Birds of molded metal
Perched up on the rocks
My finger on the button
While PANDORA held the box

Seconds left to counting
Each a hundred million years
Again the voice was crying
Pounding pulses through my ears


Don't you do it
Don't you open up the lid
She led you to it
Who are you tryin' to kid
She's no angel
Sent to heal the bleeding souls
She's PANDORA

Suddenly I saw her
Through her thinly veiled disguise
There was fire running through her
She had mushroom clouds for eyes

I was joined by all the armies
As if one mind made the choice
And we spoke the words together
With one resounding voice

We won't do it
We won't open up the lid
She led us to it
Who is she tryin' to kid
She's no angel
Sent to heal the bleeding souls
She's PANDORA
