Locked Up |
I can’t take the criticism |
I’m eaten up with cynicism |
All the colors in the prism entering my eyes |
Still can’t change my mind |
I’m a stubborn goat getting older |
A cube of ice getting colder |
Frozen heart and frozen shoulders |
That is what I’ve got |
A sweetheart I am not |
Now I’ll soften when it pays the bills |
I’ll love you in exchange for thrills |
I’ll surface 'cause withdrawal kills |
I can smell fresh blood from miles away |
I can’t be locked up this way |
I can’t be locked up this way |
I can’t be locked up like this |
I can’t be locked up this way |
I have been their slave but I’m tired of working |
I’m a jackhammer tired of jerking |
I’m a booty shaker tired of twerking |
You can laugh all you want |
Soon enough though I’ll be gone |
I’m a dying fly on the wall |
I’m a teenage girl who just won’t call |
I’m a deflated basketball |
No needle to be found |
And I just want to be round |
So I can roll, so I can bounce |
So I can roll out of this town |
I can’t be locked up like this |
I can’t be locked up like this |
I can’t be locked up this way |
I can’t be locked up like this |
Now I’m the worst ship that was ever built |
Started sinking soon as the champagne spilt |
All the dirty secrets in my quilt |
They won’t come out in the wash |
Somebody help my gosh |
I’m a beating heart off the beating path |
The God of shame, feel my wrath |
Can my filthy soul take a bath |
In the light of you, in the light of truth |
In the light of you |
No I can’t be locked up like this |
I can’t be locked up like this |
I can’t be locked up this way |
Oh, no, I can’t be locked up like this |
I can’t be locked up like this |
I can’t be locked up like this |
I can’t be locked up like this |
I can’t be locked up like this |
