Locked Box

You were born to rip and tear
Breaking hearts without a care
I spilled my guts to you
I told you the truth
But you weren’t even there

Is this what I deserve?
Won’t you grade me on a curve
I almost made a move
I’m so afraid to lose
I always lose my nerve

The screw has just been turned
Everything that wouldn’t burn
I put each memory
In a big locked box
And threw away the key

I don’t know how to please you
I just don’t know what you want from me
Your thick skull’s hard to see through
If I could get past your apathy

There’s no way to save face
Now you’re gone without a trace
I think I’m in love
But you’re not one of
The fucking human race

The screw has just been turned
Everything that wouldn’t burn
I put each memory
In a big locked box
And threw away the key
