Lock and Key 04:55
Blue skies get a bit blurry When the dark winds arrive in a hurry o-oh And I don’t know where they’re coming from You’ve got me in another of your stories Where the king dies in a blaze of glory o-oh And I don’t know where you get them from Cause we always whip the wind from the sea And we always feast from forbidden trees And we always have a little tragedy Which I wish you could just set free But I’m afraid you make a better lock than a key One day when I was braver I was swept out, yeah the ocean betrayed me o-oh And I thought I was gonna die You saved you me many moons later When the flags shook to signal something greater o-oh You saved me and made it good to be alive It’s nothing new Cause we always whip the wind from the sea And we always feast from forbidden trees And we always have a little tragedy Which I wish you could just set free But I’m afraid you make a better lock than a key

I know to look for clues in your eyes I’m reading a story in real time In between the margins In between the lines If bleeding were unbecoming I’d be fine But your battles are more exhausting than mine Cry of attrition Til we lose our minds You found a way to wave away the thieves again And I hope you get what you came for Discouraged after everybody leaves again I’ve been watching from the door But I won’t watch anymore And I hope you get what you came for A blessing don’t mean a thing to the blessed A sin is still a sin when confessed If anybody’s listening Don’t waste your time Nothing worth repeating Not a single line You found a way to wave away the thieves again And I hope you get what you came for Discouraged after everybody leaves again I’ve been watching from the door But I won’t watch anymore And I hope you get what you came for
