Music Box

Verse 1

Daddy went crazy

Mommy went blind

When the last rights were given,

there was no one left to hide behind.

Chorus

She lives in a music box

Behind a door that locks

from the outside.

She’s built a wall around

all of the secrets

that she can’t hide.

Don’t try to talk to her.

She’s not listening anyway.

Don’t ask her to come outside,

She doesn’t have permission to play.

Verse 2

She learned to be obedient

to follow every rule

She learned the type of survival

they don’t teach kids in school

Bridge

Underneath a cherry tree,

frozen in snow,

is an ice pond of teardrops

she could never let show.

Once in the while you’ll see

her feet reach the grave

A hand always clamps down,

No flowers can be laid.

Oooooo oooo x 4

Verse 3

With flesh and metal fused

She still lives in dread

She can’t block the sound of the voices

Screaming in her head

Repeat Chorus
