Lyrics

Verse 1

Bought this silver skeleton off a pawn shop shelf

Rubbed my thumb across the teeth till it knew my name

Turns every lock I've ever owned

But it can't turn back your flame

Pre-Chorus

I keep leaning in

Keep leaning on your door

One turn and I'm in

One more

Chorus

Key

You're the key to everything I locked away

Key

Turn me open let the morning find the way

Key

Every door I built was just a wall for you

Key

Come and let the light come through

Verse 2

My pockets full of tarnished rounds

None of them fit the shape you hold

I've tried the basement and the attic sounds

But your tumblers never told

Pre-Chorus

I keep leaning in

Keep leaning on your door

One turn and I'm in

One more

Chorus

Key

You're the key to everything I locked away

Key

Turn me open let the morning find the way

Key

Every door I built was just a wall for you

Key

Come and let the light come through

Bridge

I could forge a thousand copies

Marble steel or gold

But none of them would open

What only you can hold

Chorus

Key

You're the key to everything I locked away

Key

Turn me open let the morning find the way

Key

Every door I built was just a wall for you

Key

Come and let the light come through
