Pods - Big Black Box lyrics
rate meMean steel man halfway grinning<br />
Gave me a box didn't know what's in it<br />
Smooth and shiny big and tiny<br />
Didn't want to look inside<br />
WHY?<br />
Cos I was scared of what was gonna be there<br />
Maybe gonna see my soul too bare<br />
And if so I wanted to go<br />
Cos that's something I'd rather not know<br />
Mean steel man made me furious<br />
But I couldn't help being curious<br />
He knew I couldn't hold back<br />
It was my path<br />
He laughed<br />
CHORUS:<br />
You bought the big black box<br />
You threw your soul on the rocks<br />
You bought the big black box<br />
You bought the big black, big black BOX<br />
Something changed I rearranged<br />
Like this whole thing was preordained<br />
My heart shattered and animal matter<br />
Served to me my mind on a platter<br />
I lost it all inside the box<br />
Sittin there starin at the clock<br />
Watchin life from the beginning<br />
All it's worth all it's sinning<br />
As it's hopeless people fell<br />
I turned my back what the hell<br />
Like all my ancestors through time<br />
In self and ignorance our common crime<br />
CHORUS<br />
Now I spend my nights trying to forget<br />
The things I saw I regret<br />
Goin forward never tell<br />
Let the others fend for themselves<br />
Demons' eyes pass me by<br />
Piercin through on either side<br />
I'll let it slide let it die<br />
Lift my sights up to the sky<br />
The pain has fallen to another<br />
Who has yet to discover<br />
A big black box sittin on a shelf<br />
A mean steel man inside himself<br />
CHORUS
