Lyrics
Lockdown
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I can feel you calling me
I can see the cracks between these walls
But this pain
I choke on the words
As they rise in me
To survive, I lock down
I can feel you calling me
I can taste the poison in your heart
But these dreams
Blurring the line between war and peace
To survive, I lock down
Say the words
I can't face the world
If I could say the words
Everything would be broken still
We are broken
I can feel you calling me
I can see the cracks between these walls
But this pain
I choke on the words
As they rise in me
To survive, I lock down
Say the words
I can't face the world
If I could say the words
Everything would be broken still
And I know why
Lock down, lock down, lock down
