Deadbolt

(album: Back To School - 2013)

When deadbolts awake you from deja vu dreams
At four in the morning you know where I'll be
Out running red lights asleep at the wheel
The sirens feed my nightmares
I just close my eyes and I'm already here;
Its already too late
I know its nothing but lies
But they sound so sincere;
I find them too hard to hate
And she calls from the doorway "stolen water is sweet
So let's drink it in the darkness if you know what I mean"
And she calls from the doorway "stolen water is sweet
So let's drink it in the darkness if you know what I mean"
And I'm almost sure
That I've been here before
That this is not the first time I've stood in front of this door
With an overwhelming feeling that I shouldn't go in
But it seems this is a battle that I never could win
And you!
My true love!
You call from the hilltop
You call through the streets
"Darling don't you know
The water is poison."
And I say!
"Come on and give me my poison."
What have I done?
Is it too late to save me from this place?
From the depths of the grave?
We all are those ...
Who thought we were brave
What have I done?
