The Right Key Out

from DINOSAUR VII by Stephen Bard

/

lyrics

Tried to say it in a different way but the moon is still the moon
Tried to play it in a different way but the tune is still the tune
Trying to find me the right key out of this dark and lonely room
Maybe it’s already here

Let me out
Let me out into the driving rain
Let me out
Let me out so I can try and explain
Can’t escape this sinking feeling that all I’ve done is let you down

Locked door in an endless wall with no key to get me through
Broken window high above it all with no way to get the view
Couldn’t feel this open heart or that any kind of love was true
Man too wrapped up in fear

Let me out
Let me out into the driving rain
Let me out
Let me out so I can try and explain
What’s the use in all this thinking when all it does is get you down?
Down on yourself
There must be something else
Something else
Something else

Cell full of memories crouching in the dark
Fumbling a thousand keys on a chain of disregard
Trying to find me the right key out and I don’t know why it’s so hard
Maybe it’s already here

Let me out
Let me out into the driving rain
Let me out
Let me out so I can try and explain
What’s the use in all this drinking when all it does is let you drown?
Drown in yourself
I know there’s something else

Tried to say it in a different way but the moon is still the moon
Tried to play it in a different way but the tune is still the tune
Trying to find me the right key out and maybe it’s coming soon
Maybe it’s already here
