Holding The Key
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 came here tonight with a mission
To confess what I'm trying to hide
But here in the hour of decision
I'd rather give you the company line
There are secrets I don't want to tell you
And wounds you might not want to see
But they keep me bound to my sorrows
ANd I really want to be free
And you're the one holding the key
You don't have to give me an answer
AN answers the last thing I need
THere's no magical cure for this cancer
I just need you to listen to me
Cuz you're the one holding the key
We were made with these hearts
They're meant to be open
and we lock them away
Afraid of being broken
But we're giving each other the same plea
You're the one holding the key
You're the one holding the key
We were made with these hearts
Meant to be openT
hen we locked them away
Afraid of being broken
But we're given each other to set it free
And you're the one holding the key
This dark room is perfect for hiding
But I don't want to hide anymore
You can't force the light here inside it
But you can help me open the door
You're the one holding the key
We were made with these hearts
Meant to be open
Then we locked them away
Afraid of being broken
But we're given each other to set it free
And you're the one holding
The key to the truth
Of what's really going on Your listening ear
Is the grace of God
Love will take the shackles off
But you're the one holding the key
You're the one holding the key
We all need it sooner or later
A safe place for telling the truth
I'm happy returning the favor
'Cause I'm holding the key for you
