Likely Lads - Under Lock And Key Lyrics

Likely Lads – Under Lock And Key Lyrics

You are desirous of much more than I can give
And I am through with my failed attempts to live up to your image
I’m not your fool or a figure in your picture perfect scene
There are no rules that I must abide by no they’re all in your dreams

I’m always rushing around
But I’m rooted to the ground
i am just the one you’ve found
Not the one you really need
And I need some space to see
Through the animosity
And the way that you hold me
Under your lock and key

I am not the one you need I’m just the one you see
There are plenty more stood behind me
I am not the one you want I’m just the first you’ve found
Won’t you take the time to look around

Sit on the window ledge I won’t give you my concern
I’ll never fit into your deluded fiction sprinkled world
Can you not see that I’ll never sweep you off your tired feet
Ultimately it will end in tears and they won’t be shed by me

I’m always rushing around
But I’m rooted to the ground
i am just the one you’ve found
Not the one you really need
And I need some space to see
Through the animosity
And the way that you hold me
Under your lock and key

I am not the one you need I’m just the one you see
There are plenty more stood behind me
I am not the one you want I’m just the first you’ve found
Won’t you take the time to look around

I am not the one you need I’m just the one you see
There are plenty more stood behind me
I am not the one you want I’m just the first you’ve found
Won’t you take the time to look
Won’t you take the time to look
Won’t you take the time to look around
