Pandora - Life Outside The Box

If you open it
There is good and bad inside
And I warn you
You can't put it back in
Won't be able to close that lid
Like stuffing a jack-in-the-box back in
I'll admit, at first
I WAS regretting opening it
Walking through a foreign land
No signposts or familiar markers
Just no point of reference
Mistakes, messes
Pain, both mine and others
I've tried running for cover 
Yes, a few times
 But, no
Running, quitting 
Not going to happen
Awake and aware now
Knowing the truth
Learning every day
To not walk it 
In reality 
Now
Weak & Cowardly
I will learn & embrace lessons
In both the joy and the mistakes
I will make right where I can
I will embrace life 
I will sing, laugh 
And I will love
I will LIVE
