Unlock . . .

. . . the box  (a work in-progress)



There comes a time when
You’re out of time then
You’re backed in a corner
With no place left to go
So you cut your losses
Don’t look for causes
Don’t say I didn’t warn ya
Because we both know, I told you so…

Unlock the box, like we agreed
It’s full of things we’re going to need
Give me the keys, we’ll drive right now
We got nothing left here, anyhow…

Our days are shrinking
We’re done with thinking
Behind the eight ball
It’s time to cut and run
It’s not so strange
The rate of exchange --
Oh, it never was our call --
It’s settled by the one who holds the gun…

Unlock the box, like we agreed
It’s full of things we’re going to need
Give me the keys, we’ll drive right now
We got nothing left here, anyhow…

       So buckle up now, step on the gas
       We’ll sneak out via the underpass
       We won’t be back, so say goodbye
       We’re going to take a little ride
       You know we have to do what’s best
       We’re heading west, we’re heading west

Unlock the box, we’re good to go
It’s full of things we gotta know
Give me the keys, we’ll drive right now
We got nothing left here, anyhow
We got nothing left here, anyhow
Unlock the box…
