Little Black Box

Hey, I always knew
That we'd end up this way.
I just assumed,
Some day you would betray...
Now I don't know
If these points of view create
These situations so I can contain..

I can hold you
I control I control it all...
Keep it locked,
I keep it locked,
In a little black box.
I keep it locked,
I keep it locked,
In a little black box.
In a Little black box.

Hey-well you got your kicks
You had your fix of fun.
My love you always were the restless one,
Now I don't know
Who is cursed and who is blessed.
Because love that's leaving
Looks the loveliest.

I can hold you,
I control I control it all,
Keep it locked,
I keep it locked,
In a little black box.
I keep it locked,
I keep it locked,
In a little black box.
In a little black box.

She's so very young,
Still child within.
Will light the eyes
And flash sometimes,
Before the age-old grown disguise
Sets easily back across her features.
And even flawless creatures
Are each as tainted
As the rest of us.
Cat curious and alone,
In the rooms I rent
She roams when I'm not there,
And she's drifting away...

Hey-I can see your skin
Peek through little black squares,
The sheen shimmers catch my reflection there,
Each part of the net traps a tiny piece,
Of my wantings and my vanity.

Keep it locked,
I keep it locked,
In a little black box.
I keep it locked,
I keep it locked,
In a little black box.
