It's quite awkward
That I should like you
But words won't escape
My evermoving mouth
I'm so tired now
My eyes have been
Drooping for so long
So let me in
I'm banging at your door
Just let me in
You just can't be
The master of all things
It isn't right
For either of us
Now some music
Plays in the background
Like a neverstopping record
So let me in
I'm banging at your door just let me in
The words break
all my locked chains
& you sing them
so beautifully
A tear sheds
At these last words
So let me in
