about

Everyone has heard the expression, "to open Pandora's box"... which is essentially when we do something that triggers a lot of other problems to appear that did not exist or were not known of before. This song is inspired by the Greek myth of Pandora in Hesiod's "Works and Days".

However, the song is not influenced solely on the myth, is it a comment on our individual responsibility, also as a collective, a community, to take a look at our actions, the words we use and our impact on everyone and everything around us. To stop the chain reaction of the destruction of our planet, the subjugation of all humans - fight war not wars, to protect those without a voice - animal rights, to end sexism, racism, bigotry, homophobia, colonialism, white privilege, fascism, nazism, capitalistic oppression and domination.

STOP THE HATE!

lyrics

This precious gift that I've received.
I do not see I've been deceived.
I wonder what's bestowed to me.
And you are good at make-believe.

Seduction lives inside this box.
Its secrets hide behind no locks.
An ugly truth in dark disguise.
Empty beauty to mesmerize.

Pandora x2

I have succumb to temptation.
I've looked inside at flirtation.
But now I see it is too late.
To open it has sealed my fate.

A box of evil I've released.
Curiosity has unleashed the beast.
Upon the world this pain will spread.
I've set in motion a curse of dread.

Pandora...
