lock and key Lyrics

I can't get outta my mind

I really can't get outta my mind

I want to run home and hide

I really want to run home and hide

I'm trying to understand why

The words they just aren't flowing tonight

There's a wall to climb

Lock and key to find

To say the things that I'm thinking inside

There's lots of ways to say it

Some nice some not so kind

To tell them what he's about

"He's just a little shy"

"Has a rich inner life"

"That guy just standing alone all night"

He's looking out the window

Avoiding people's gaze

Seems like he's longing for something

We say his name in passing

He turns around real quick

And then goes back to the wall

I wonder what he's doing here

I can't get outta my mind

I really can't get outta my mind

I want to run home and hide

I really want to run home and hide

I'm trying to understand why

The words they just aren't flowing tonight

There's a wall to climb

Lock and key to find

To say the things that I'm thinking inside

He needs to find some help now

To get his life on track

So many hands to reach out to

With every missed connection

With every wasted chance

Another day staying silent

Another day to think of

The words that he won't say

Afraid to see what will happen

He can't do this much longer

The edge approaching fast

He's helpless to his own demons

Will he ever find his way

I can't get outta my mind

I really can't get outta my mind (gotta get outta my mind)

I want to run home and hide

I really want to run home and hide (I shouldn't stay here inside)

I'm trying to understand why (the words they won't come out)

The words they just aren't coming out right (why won't they come out)

There's a wall to climb

Lock and key to find

To say the things that I'm thinking inside

What if they don't even listen

What if no one even cares what I say

What if they finally hear me

And make me wish that I'd said nothing all day

I can't get outta my mind

I really can't get outta my mind

I want to run home and hide

I really want to run home and hide

I'm trying to understand why

The words they just aren't coming out right

There's a wall to climb

Lock and key to find

To say the things that I'm thinking inside
