whatever you do, however terrible, however hurtful, it all make sense, doesn't it ,
in your head. you never meet anybody who thinks ther're a bad person.
don't you just take the past and put it in a room in the basement,
and lock the door and never go in there?
and then you meet someone special ,
and all you want to do is toss them the key.
say "open up, step inside."
but you can't,
because it's dark , and there are demons .
and if anybody saw how ugly it is ......

now that's the music talking.

i keep wanting to do that, fling the door open.
just let the light in, clean everything out.
if i can take a giant eraser and rub out everything,
starting with myself ,
the thing is , peter, if ,
if ,if ,,,,

NO KEY, huh?
