The Box
The Box was given long ago 
 A gift from a nameless being
 Locked
 To stay locked
 Forever
 The key was given
 Along with trust
 But the trust was shattered
 The box opened
 The Monsters 
 Released
 Greed 
 Anger
 Jealousy
 Lust
 Laziness
 And Pride
 The Anchients realized their mistake
 The tried to recapture the Beasts
 But the Beasts captured them
 Today
 We have forgotten
 The Beasts roam freely
 Unchallenged
 And the Box?
 The Box lays
 Stil opened
 Beneath the dust
 Of centuries passed
 The Monsters have beaten us
 And the Nameless One
 Looks down with a shame
 For we broke his trust
 And opened his Box
 Releasing
 The Sins
 The Monsters
 Who will forever roam these lands
 Claiming us
 Changing us
 To do Their evil will
 All because
 We unlocked the lock 
 And opened the Box
