Under Lock and Key Lyrics by Ben Marwood

Back Down

0

I've got eyes in the back of my head, she said
Then she turned her back
But she didn't see the blow that I would land
And under crumpled legs, the fire in eyes snuffed out
Now we must return her body to the ground
And the words we said as we wrecked her bed
Were only port in a storm
And the ship has sailed, but the mission failed
And we were always bound for war
Like everybody else
They should keep someone like me under lock and key
They should keep someone like me under lock..
When the morning breaks over still life, the still life won't stand out
And her lack of breathing is louder than a shout
And now I'm running 'till my legs pull tight
And I've never cried so hard in my whole life
And the words we know, flare up and explode
Like we're on a firing range
And the ship has sailed with the mission failed
But we will never be the same
And never will again
They should keep someone like me under lock and key
They should keep someone like me under lock, oh..
They should keep someone like me under lock and key
They should keep someone like me
Under lock
They should keep someone like me under lock and key
They should keep someone like me under lock, oh
They should keep someone like me under lock and key
They should keep someone like me
Under lock
Under lock
