The Treasure Box
One, two
Counting the three-pronged hooks, I’ve got them all.
What’s wrapped up tight
Is the sound of my dear mother’s voice.
Alone or with someone,
I stuck a thorny branch in the keyhole.
Was I too young to understand?
I’ve been left with this emptiness.
* Up until now, I’ve been holding back
"I’m sorry"
For everything,
Now I open it,
The treasure box melts the night away with you, oh so sweet.
One, two, my ring finger,
That’s just a fairy tale.
What burned me was
Seventeen.
Now it’s the thread of formality.
Up until now, I’ve been holding back
"I’m sorry"
For everything,
Now I open it,
The treasure box melts me and you away, oh so sweet.
* repeat
Up until now, I’ve kept forgiving
"I’m sorry"
Even that,
Now I open it,
The treasure box melts me and you away.
Oh so sweet.
Oh so sweet.
