The Master Key

Описание: Lyrics 👇


I spent ten years knocking on a padded door
Checking for a lock, pacing on the floor
I asked the priest and I asked the ghost
For the one thing that I needed most
I thought the ceiling was a heavy stone
I thought I was living in a cage of bone
But the air was moving through the keyhole gap
And I realised I was holding the map.

It wasn't a secret, it wasn't a spell
I had the key to my own little hell
Turn it to the right, hear the cylinder click
The world is a stage and I’m tired of the trick
I’ve got the master key.

They sell you the padlocks in the evening news
They sell you the chains and the heavy shoes
They want you sitting in the waiting room
Polishing the bars of a golden tomb
But the metal is soft and the hinges are weak
It only takes a whisper for the door to squeak
I’m walking out where the grass is tall
I’m leaving the shadow of the prison wall.

It wasn't a secret, it wasn't a spell
I had the key to my own little hell
Turn it to the right, hear the cylinder click
The world is a stage and I’m tired of the trick
I’ve got the master key.

Unlock the habit, unlock the shame
Unlock the fear of your own damn name
It’s in your hand! It’s in your hand!
Don’t just stand there! Don’t just stand!
