Genie - Marillion

I let the genie out of the box

I let the genie out of the box

I’m scared of everything I am

I let the genie out of the box

I’m scared of opening the can

I let the genie out of the box

I had this recurring dream

I was living another life

In another country

In another time

As I got older the dream began to fade away

Until one day

There she was.

tapping me on my shoulder

She says she’s got so much to say

But she’s not telling it today

She said «Come back when you’re alone»

But I’m not sure I want to know

Cause maybe her road

Is a one-way street

Maybe her road.

I’m scared of everything I am

I’m scared of opening the can

I’m scared of losing who I am

Think I might’ve taken all I can

I let the genie out of the box

She said there’s a house in your mind

An attic of treasure, a forgotten pleasure park

Waiting inside you in the dark

Don’t leave it behind

Don’t leave it behind

I’m scared of everything I am

I’m scared of opening the can

I’m scared of losin' who I am

Think I might’ve taken all I can

I let the genie out of the box

I let the genie out of the box

Out of the box
