Lock Me Up

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.

Last week I heard clicking sounds from the nearby alley

Now the whole world's on lockdown

Wonder how the hell I missed it

Soldiers blocked my district

But there's a glossy backdoor in my parents' basement

I'll slip into it avoiding a barren wasteland

Don't want

To end up a statistic

I'll be gone for this spring

Mama don't say a thing

My long journey won't put you in danger

Lock me up, lock me up

In my room

Still gonna pack things up

And sneak out

To Hyrule

I'll explore the Great Plateau with my mask off

Beedle's store's raking in profits like Tesco

Lock me up, leave me it's

Not so bad

I'm gonna hit the pubs

Down the streets of

Novigrad

Nothing's changing under quarantine orders

Redania's never closing its borders

Lock me up

It's alright

Lock me up

Leave me here

I don't mind

And while we hide, bloodflies might swarm the city spreading

The Tyrant virus outside, trust me, I've already seen that

Think I should move to Greenland

So lick me barnacle, hug me, my buddy headcrab

I'm safe and sound hanging 'round with my City Seventeen friends

Till the quarantine ends

I'll stay home the whole spring

Mama won't say a thing

Gaming now is officially healthy

Lock me up, lock me up

In my room

I'm gonna pack things up

And sneak out

To Hyrule

Then to Skyrim, maybe even to Lordran

Dying right after respawning is so fun

Lock me up, leave me it's

Not so bad

Bullies won't beat me up

Kronika will instead

Netherrealm's not under quarantine orders

I kept the distance but still ended up quartered

Lock me up

It's alright

Lock me up

I'll stay put

I don't mind

I might spend decades in this shelter before escaping

To post apocalyptic lands

So bring me pizza, Mr Bridges, and some toilet paper

Don't worry, I won't shake your hand

Lock me up, lock me up

In my room

Still gonna pack things up

And sneak out

To Hyrule

I'll explore the Great Plateau with my mask off

Beedle's store's raking in profits like Tesco

Lock me up, leave me it's

Not so bad

I'm gonna hit the pubs

Down the streets of

Novigrad

Nothing's changing under quarantine orders

Redania's never closing its borders, whoa

Lock me up, lock me up

You better lock me up, lock me up

Lock me up, lock me up

It's not so bad

You better lock me up, lock me up

It's not so bad

Nothing's changing under quarantine orders

Redania's never closing its borders

Lock me up

It's alright

Lock me up

Leave me here

I don't mind
