What's inside the case?
A surprise?
Money?
A crime?

Open it
Have a look
We might be rich
We might just have been caught

The black suddenly drawn open
The sudden feeling of suspense
Just managing to cope
It's starting to get intense

Open

It's open
Let's see
Don't close it
See what's there

What is it?
A surprise?
Money?
A crime?

It's hard to decifer
It's hard to take now
Close it
It's getting too much

Shut

It's closed
Finally
Time to leave
Time to get away

Let's run as far as possible
Let's not be scared
Let's stay calm
Let's just hide

Get away
The guilt I feel is unreal
Run
Noooooo

Stop
