Rush - Lock & Key Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Words by neil peart, music by geddy lee and alex lifeson
  • I dont 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 --
  • Dont 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 dont want to face
  • The killer instinct --
  • Face it in you or me
  • So we keep it under lock and key...
  • Its not a matter of mercy
  • Its not a matter of laws
  • Plenty of people will kill you
  • For some fanatical cause
  • Its not a matter of conscience --
  • A search for probable cause
  • Its just a matter of instinct --
  • A matter of fatal flaws
  • No reward for resistance
  • No assistance --
  • No applause...
  • We dont want to be victims
  • On that we all agree
  • So we lock up the killer instinct --
  • And throw away the key...
