lyrics

They’re never gonna give me the key
But I know the city keeps a spare under the mat
And I guess I’m fine with that
They’re always gonna make me use air quotes
When I tell them I’m a “master” of my “craft”
10,000 hours in I fall to masterpieces

I’m a wreck and I’m a recluse
And I’m recognizing things inside me
You’d never want me to let loose
I’m a wreck, a world-class wrecking crew
Lost in my thoughts, lost in a forest
But the only way out is through
The only way out is through

'Cause I wanted oh so badly not to want it so badly
Tried to leave it alone but it snuck up and black bagged me
I was a bombproof horse just looking for a seat at the table
Now I’m a bitter blast shadow on the walls of the stable

And I’ve got, I’ve got some questionable things in my portfolio
But I’ve got a funny feeling
That you’ve grossly miscounted my number of rodeos
And I’ve got, I’ve got some questions about
Just how long that van has been parked outside my house
I’ve got an 80-proof vest I play everything close to
And a wire on the chest of everyone I’m close to
Of everyone I’m close to

They’re never gonna give me the key
But I know the city keeps a spare under the mat
They’re always gonna bury the truth
But they don’t know that I know where they hide the map
