LOCKING UP HOUSES:
they've been locking up houses
seems our hopes have been dashed again
all this time we planned our escape
now we've come to an end
I've been dreaming in mumbles
I just can't find the words to say
just a ghost on this window pane
and I'm doomed to stay
oh don't you forget, it's the darkest it gets
before the sunrise
when you're crying alone,
I recognize more than you realize
so soon you will see
soon you'll be free
leave it to me
it's amazing how quiet
I'm as lonely as I've ever been
everybody's online but sometimes I just need a friend
I've been reading these clauses,
I've been wondering if this it it
everyone of us holding hands
doubt; we're filled with it
oh don't you forget, it's the darkest it gets
before the sunrise
when you're crying alone,
I recognize more than you realize
so soon you will see
soon you'll be free
leave it to me
they've been locking up houses
don't leave me babe
