pandora's box Lyrics

At night there's a glow from the window

The street lamps illuminate my room

And tonight that light will be put to good use

Words in a notebook

Pages of unspoken truths

A text that i will never send

A heart that breaks only for you

How can i leave you

When i don't even know if you'd stay

And how can i fall in love

When my heart isn't mine to give away

I know you must think so little of me

To leave you so pathetically

The last word i uttered was stay

Now i've opened up Pandora's box

It left me with the bones of all the lovers that i couldn't save

And i find their remains are engraved with my name

At night there's a glow from the window

And i can't bear to tell you the truth

So let the wreckage of my soul swallow the heart of a fool

I cannot leave you

But i don't have the courage to stay

And i cannot fall in love

When my heart isn't mine to give away

Oh how can i fall in love

When my heart isn't mine to give away
