Lyrics for Lock And Key by Rush:
| | | Artist: | Rush |
| | Album: | Hold Your Fire | | Track: | Lock And Key | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 122 | | | | Lyrics: | I don't want to face the killer instinct --
Face it in your or me
We carry a
sensitive cargo
Below the waterline --
Ticking like a time bomb
With a primitive
design
Behind the finer feelings --
This civilized veneer --
The heart of a
lonely hunter
Guards a dangerous frontier
The balance can sometimes fail
--
Strong emotions can tip the scale --
Don't want to silence a desperate
voice
For the sake of security
No one wants to make a terrible choice
On the price of
being free
I don't want to face the killer instinct -- face it in you or me
So we keep it
under lock and key...
It's not a matter of mercy
It's not a matter of
laws
Plenty of people will kill you for some fanatical cause
It's not a matter of
conscience --
A search for probable cause
It's just a matter of instinct -- a matter of
fatal flaws
No reward for resistance
No assistance -- no applause...
we
don't want to be victims
on that we all agree, so we lock up the killer instinct --
and
throw away the key | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
