Jack in the Box

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I felt safe. But that was back then Let me get to the point i'm trying to make now. Let me get to where i can point out exactly how You've alienated me this time and why I don't ever again want to even try To be you friend No, never again Let me get to when you decided to be God Let me explain why i've been living a facade You've never even listened to anyone but you And now you can't understand how all the hatred grew Against you now You before the plow     I don't even need to wind it up that far     Everyone sees the pretty little box without scar     But noone sees what it holds inside     The ugly face that you try to hide Let me show you why everyone claims no association Let me explain exactly how you recieved revokation Maybe if you would try not to be so controlling Maybe if you would try to listen when the bell's tolling For your social demise See why she cries     I don't even need to wind it up that far     Everyone sees the pretty little box without scar     But noone sees what it holds inside     The ugly face that you try to hide Wind and wind and wind and wind and wind and wind Until the ugly face is all that we see.
