Lock And Key Lyrics

Ambition crumbles like the wintered Boston streets.
High hopes fall apart like the cracked and broken roads of Boston in winter.

Another day of rain, an empty promise repeats.
A recurring disappointment, as empty promises continue to be made despite the gloomy weather.

Salt stained leather bound the soles of your feet.
The journey has left a mark on you, as evidenced by the salt-stained leather shoes you wear.

Amongst good company, a drink to empathy.
Drinking in the company of kindred spirits, to experience empathy and connection with others.

Morning breaks and it's a brand new day.
A new day has dawned, bringing with it new opportunities and possibilities.

Growing outward like a plant in the shade.
Slow and steady growth, even in circumstances that may not be ideal or easy.

Hung over from the night, and my back isn't right today. (isn't right today)
The physical and emotional aftermath of the previous night's excesses, perhaps compounded by other physical ailments.

But the sun brings back a feeling like the end of a long work day.
Despite the setbacks and discomfort, the warmth of the sun restores a sense of satisfaction and completion, much like the end of a productive work day.

Soil breaks, new life penetrates, and we move forward
As the soil, life finds a way to break through obstacles, and we continue on our journey, onwards and upwards.
