The lock of our bodies,
Holding close through the seasons to become legendary
The clock wore us away,
Left to a life of misery with these ghosts upon my back,
That whisper your name in the dark
And it pierces right through me tonight

Straight through the heart
Eyes locked to the ceiling
I play the same motions in my mind,
I cannot tear myself away from these hauntings
Behind the locking doors, I am writing my escape

Picking up the pieces this has reduced me to
Now the line is crossed, sick of living between you and the world,
I need the close (I need to know)is this how you want this?
Are these fingertips outstretched for nothing?
I need the close, I need you
Or the chance to start anew

Speak to me,
Bring down the walls that have divided us,
If you believe this is worth saving like I do
Just a few words to instill the way things used to be
Like strangers meeting under lanterns,
Like you never knew my face
If only I could bring you back to me
If only I could sever the strings
Bring down the walls that divide forever
