Locked Up

by Old Nobody

/
1.
You know that things are different today Everyone has to stay away All I can do is eat and play Lines between right or wrong are grey When I am afraid that this is the end Then why do i sit here in abstinence? I could go out and meet some friends Well, that's not what they recommend So I will try no one to offend I don't wanna be condemned I wish I could have that trust But I think it's a bit unjust Many things stay undiscussed And rushed Try to focus on your thing I hear this so often that I could sing People behave like they are the king Politics talk of solidarity I don't think they speak with sincerity I hope they get some sanity soon

Should 04:30
I should break away my chains I should face it's all insane I should pack my things and run away as fast as i can I should finally see myself I should finally free myself I should stop to look back to so much that I can't tell I should stop just to survive I should start to live my life I should be looking forward to the end of those endless strifes I should, i should, i should I should, i should, i should but will I ever get over these endless walls? I should, i should, i should I should, i should, i should but what if I am free and everything's just worse? I should, i should, i should I should, i should, i should but will I ever get over these walls of fear and guilt?

I tried so hard to make it through the everlasting pain I tried so hard to see the light at the end of days You did not understand it, you did not even care So I could just pretend it but happiness was rare All I ever wanted: going back to start, make some different choices, find the strength to part

I look through the window grey is all i can see I feel like a weirdo Cause I wish I could be free I look through the window People look all the same I feel like a weirdo Cause I wish I could be one of them

Stay 05:16
Going through the worst of all my times Searching so hard just for a sign Bracing myself against comitting a crime Soothing my soul by drinking wine Why do I want you? I'm so f*cking sick of my desire so f*cking sick of my whole trying to get your love I want to break free but must comply wanna live with a meaning but need to ally I break in two You seem to feel the same but deny the truth seem to think you got endless youth You will wake up You thought you would rather die Now you see you are living a lie You just go on and see the time pass by It's no option to resign The situation is defined You just try your best to feel fine I don't wanna go away It's so hard but I must stay All I can do is pray That things get right someday I don't wanna go away It's so hard but I must stay

Locked Up 06:30
Lonely, so lonely in my room tonight Down, I'm down, I don't see a light Locked up, I am locked up, I can't move or fight Sitting and waiting totally quiet Come and give your hand to me Help me, oh please help me, set me free I dream that I'm free, that I see lhe light I dream, i just dream that everything's alright

Walking through the desert of my heart It's not so easy to make a new start When everything is falling apart And people saying "be strong" is all you got
