Keeper of the keys
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 always wondered what it was like inside of you
Now that I've seen it, I know what the dark is like inside of you too.
If you ask me no questions, I will tell you no lies
Who's the monarch, and the king and who's the butterflies,
Is it you?
Tell me, what can I do?
[Chorus]
This love begins to rust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Are you a believer, tell me how
could you leave her?
When the story's getting good, the plot is getting deeper
You lied behind your kiss when you said she was the keeper
You're on your own, so find a way back home
to you.
Find a way back home to you.
I never like it when someone puts me in my place
And when you do you can tell by the sad, pathetic look on my face
I know what it takes to contend
Years of hard work and a will to pretend that it's true,
tell me, what can I do?
[Chorus]
This love begins to rust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Are you a believer, tell me how
could you leave her?
When the story's getting good, the plot is getting deeper
You lied behind your kiss when you said she was the keeper
You're on your own, so find a way back home
to you.
Find a way back home to you.
Find a way back home to you.
Find a way back home to you. (ashes to ashes, dust to dust)
Find a way back home to you. (ashes to ashes, dust to dust)
Find a way back home to you. (ashes to ashes, dust to dust)
Find a way back home to you.
(Ashes to ashes, dust to dust)
