When you stick something behind a lock...
It only makes people want to get to it more.
Then on day some guy picks the lock...
But it's fine you're alright with it,
You even invite him to stay awhile.
Then one night while you're sleeping he steals what's behind the lock.
But it's fine you're alright with it,
He's still here, he hasn't left...you don't want him to leave...
Then one night while you're sleeping he breaks what was behind the lock.
And then leaves...you sit and cry and wonder...
Did he really pick the lock or did I just let him in?
