Amitri Del Former Owner Lyrics

Former Owner Lyrics

So who was first? 

Obviously not me. 

She's locked up inside herself 

and I can't get anything free 

So won't somebody tell me please 

Why the former owner always keeps the keys. 



There's no bubbles to burst 

No bursting out crying nor dying of thirst 

She's utterly tied to somebody else 

and it seems he got there first. 

And No, I'm not untying 

the reins around her neck that she feels 

and I won't try to prise out of her the truth anymore 

when she lies about the things that she sees 

Because the former owner always keeps the keys. 



There's no calling 

"Come here, you're necessary to me." 

There's no excitement in her face when I implore 

"Corrupt me and confess to me some more." 

And when we hear trees falling or see people disappearing 

Her emotions won't be reached or released, 

Because the former owner is keeping the keys 



Like a ticket inspector running for a bus 

Irony's revenge surrounds us. 

And it's ironic that he promised you he'd never let you go 

When he's left you used-up and disturbed 

And I said "Just as the early bird catches the worm 

The early cat catches the bird" 

But that former owner is keeping his word
