The Key Lyrics
Richer words have come from your mouth.
Another day and I just can't sleep, I won't be allowed.
Now you're breaking up,
I can't hear a sound,
But you don't care, you put the phone down,
Continue your frown.
And then we watched it grow, but now the love's grown old.
You're leaving cause there's some place you should be.
And I can't believe it, Cause you swore out loud that place is here with me.
If I'm so wrong then who you supposed to be, Cause I just won't take this.
And if you want out there's the door, here's the key.
Lately I've discovered a switch.
Another switch that I just can't shake,
I need to get out.
And I don't want to stay, I'm not that proud.
Another day is enough for me, to be part of the crowd.
And so we watched it grow, but now its us grown old.
You're leaving cause there's some place you should be.
And I can't believe it, cause you swore out loud that place is here with me.
If I'm so wrong then who you supposed to be, cause I just won't take this.
And if you want out there's the door, here's the key.
And I don't know whether, I just don't know whether,
I'm begging for peace, see I'm down on my knees,
And my heart's feeling strained like my life's just be drained.
And It's as I expected this whole thing's connected.
As the world kept on fighting we still stood united,
As the world kept on fighting we still stood united,
As the world kept on fighting we still stood united...
You're leaving cause there's some place you should be.
And I can't believe it, cause you swore out loud that place is here with me.
If I'm so wrong then who you supposed to be, cause I just wont take this.
And if you want out there's the door, here's the key.
You're leaving cause there's some place you should be.
And I can't believe it, cause you swore out loud that place is here with me.
If I'm so wrong then who you supposed to be, cause I just wont take this.
And if you want out there's the door, here's the key.
Another day and I just can't sleep, I won't be allowed.
Now you're breaking up,
I can't hear a sound,
But you don't care, you put the phone down,
Continue your frown.
And I can't believe it, Cause you swore out loud that place is here with me.
If I'm so wrong then who you supposed to be, Cause I just won't take this.
And if you want out there's the door, here's the key.
Another switch that I just can't shake,
I need to get out.
And I don't want to stay, I'm not that proud.
Another day is enough for me, to be part of the crowd.
And I can't believe it, cause you swore out loud that place is here with me.
If I'm so wrong then who you supposed to be, cause I just won't take this.
And if you want out there's the door, here's the key.
I'm begging for peace, see I'm down on my knees,
And my heart's feeling strained like my life's just be drained.
And It's as I expected this whole thing's connected.
As the world kept on fighting we still stood united,
As the world kept on fighting we still stood united,
As the world kept on fighting we still stood united...
And I can't believe it, cause you swore out loud that place is here with me.
If I'm so wrong then who you supposed to be, cause I just wont take this.
And if you want out there's the door, here's the key.
And I can't believe it, cause you swore out loud that place is here with me.
If I'm so wrong then who you supposed to be, cause I just wont take this.
And if you want out there's the door, here's the key.

this took a lot of guts to write. he stands up to their love even as theres no "we" any longer, as she keeps playing what simply has to be a frown. their love grew but it grew up, which is the first step to getting old; first you´re shaping, what follows is anthesis and by eventually losing verve and energy. he recognizes all of this yet unable to reach her. And if he´s really wrong, if she actually cant see the - a fact not to be challenged - timelessness of their love, then hey...what is she doing here? whos she supposed to be, and where, cause its certainly not here. and thats the point of interest in my opinon here: he wont break down and cry, he stands by his love! he can lose her, but not the idea of their love. he isnt the begger who tries to run after her and get her back with whatsoever, she broke his heart by tearing down their love - shes just a woman, but the thing they created together should have been timeless, so he would never have ended it from his side . he may had the same thoughts as her, but came to another conclusion. maybe because of the thing they got through together, and the way they build a cocoon, a special place seperated from the rest of the world. he has made his decision, she made hers. so the only thing left to do is pointing her to the door, exclaiming she could leave if she really wanted to.
