On the day she finally left me
She left one thing behind
Just a small box on the table
That she wanted me to find
There was something bad inside it
It was something that I should have left alone
Now everything is standing still
It was all in my head then I made it devolve
Everything was fine until it was awful instead
Now watch me dissolve
And it loved me, and it scared** me
And the fear set me free
And then it changed** me, and I liked* it
Then it started using me
Would you cancel my appointments
Pretty sure I won't be coming in today
Now everything is standing still
It was all in my head then I made it devolve
Everything was fine until it was awful instead
Now watch me dissolve
Everything is standing still
It was all in my head then I made it devolve
Everything was fine until it was awful instead
Now watch me dissolve
It's too late to say I'm sorry
Any way it's not true
There's a small box on the table
And I left it there for you
And I really hope you like it
If you need me I'll be anywhere but here
Now everything is standing still
It was all in my head then I made it devolve
Everything was fine until it was awful instead
Now watch me dissolve
