I've been locked out, I've been locked in But I always seem to come back again When you're in that room, oh what do you do? I know that I will have you in the end And the clouds they are crying on you And the birds are offering up their tunes In a shack as remote as a mansion You escape into a place where nothing moves And I've been locked out, and I know we're through But I can't begin to face up to the truth I wait so long for the walls to crack But I know that I will one day have you back And the hills are as soft as a pillow And they cast a shadow on my bed And the view when I look through my window Is an altarpiece I'm praying to for the living and the dead The twin valleys shines in the morning sun I send a message out to my only one Yet I've been locked out, and I know we're through But I can't begin to face up to the truth And I wait so long for the walls to crack But I know that I will one day have you back Yes, I will And I work, bees in the honey Every night, I circle like the moon And it's an act of simple devotion But it can take forever when you've got something to prove I've been locked out And I've been locked out And I've been locked out
