Lockstep Lyrics by The Jives (Rock)

One Last Roll of the Dice

2019

[Verse 1]
I feel emboldened
Emboldened by the seams
Of waking expectations
To qualify the means
Nostalgia is dead
No time to regress back to whats behind
[Verse 2]
Don't call this outta your hand
Just to get caught lying
But you keep trying to pull out on command
Selfishly saving your skin
From all the conflict thats been chewing you up from within
So used to biting my tongue, only despite my mouth
Never really did me much good
Gotta let my mouth off the chain
Before I throw it down
Gotta make myself understood
[Chorus]
What do you ignore?
To help you get to sleep
Darker realisations you keep in your head
Would you answer for
The way you drag me by the collar
Only so much I can follow in lockstep
[Verse 3]
Streetlights shine brighter out here
Illuminating mistakes that I once used to fear
Don't seem to carry your way
Just a reminder of the time that's left for me to waste
Sense of caution, it keeps me on the ground
But I hear the screws coming lose
I'm feeling crash to crash blow
And I can't say for sure but you look at me like you feel it to
But battery just makes thicker skin
I'm worried that I built the walls too high to let you in
[Chorus]
What do you ignore?
To help you get to sleep
Darker realisations you keep in your head
Would you answer for
The way you drag me by the collar
Only so much I can follow in lockstep
