Title: Lockets
by ciara from Wales | in writing, performance, lyrics
Lockets
Am D7
I've come to hate all that I see
Am D7
Can't help but to forsake feelings
Am D7
Trying to repress the inklings
B7 Am D7 Am D7
Boxed up and locked thoughts in the back of my mind
Am D7
Don't bother writing me a sonnet
Am D7
I am done with all the excess
Am D7
I'll live on as your sentimental ornament
B7 Am D7 Am D7
C
Boxed up and locked thoughts in the back of my mind
Cadd9 G
The evening's creeping in fragmented
Am Em
Moving swiftly as the snowfall
Cadd9 G
Fluorescent lights flickering and buzzing
Em Am
It's winter again in the city
Cadd9 G
It doesn't satisfy me anymore
You're always bitter and sharp like shards of glass
The outlook's bleak, she's a dismal whore
Boxed up and locked thoughts in the back of my mind
The evening's creeping in fragmented
Moving swiftly as the snowfall
Fluorescent lights flickering and buzzing
It's winter again in the city
I resist listening to the pleas
'Stay with me darling'
Just can't accept that he believes
Boxed up and locked thoughts in the back of my mind
You take my hand and try to caress
But I'm done acting clandestinely
Your display of furiousness
And quick wit could drive to insanity
The evening's creeping in fragmented
Moving swiftly as the snowfall
Fluorescent lights flickering and buzzing
It's winter again in the city
Chords and lyrics of a song I wrote for my band, (a working progress)
