  1.                                                                                                                                                        "Unlocked"         
  2. It's 1 a.m
  3. Lying alone
  4. one foot away
  5. from someone
  6.  
  7.          I think of you 
  8.          and know
  9.          my solitude
  10.          counts for nothing
  11.     
  12.                 really
  13.                 it's not as though
  14.                 there's any reality
  15.                 you can give me
  16.         
  17.                      but I know
  18.                      cold reality
  19.                      is you cannot
  20.                      give me anything
  21.              
  22.                              because that would
  23.                              make me a thief 
  24.                              and you a fence
  25.                              for stolen goods
  26.                   
  27.                                    but for you to
  28.                                    give me anything
  29.                                    that would not be right
  30.                                    because even if I am 
  31.                            
  32.                        
  33.                                                    f
  34.                                                     a
  35.                                                       l
  36.                                                        l
  37.                                                         i
  38.                                                          n
  39.                                                           g
  40.                                                          down
  41.                                                       crazy
  42.                                                   for you
  43.                                     
  44.                                                                    I have no one else
  45.                                                                    I'm clinging
  46.                                                                    to kind words 
  47.                                                                    like a life raft                                               
  48.                                                 
  49.                                                                         but there's sand
  50.                                                                    under my feet
  51.                                                            so I don't know     
  52.                                                     why I cling
  53.                                                 
  54.                             you are not mine
  55.                        to cling to
  56.                   you are your own
  57.      and you have your own
  58.                             
  59. and I shouldn't
  60. be a part of that
  61. so if you feel like going
  62. (not that you ever were here)
  63.           
  64.                     I won't
  65.                     stop you
  66.                     even though                     
  67.                     I want to
  68.  
  69.                                     you know
  70.                                     when I said
  71.                                     I love you
  72.                                     I felt
  73.             
  74.                                                                                                     like                
  75.                                                   I'd
  76.                                                    caught
  77.                                                           fire
  78.                   
  79.                                                   but, as long as things
  80.                                                   where you are, are good
  81.                                                    I don't mind if you
  82.                                                    just say goodbye
  83.                
  84.                                                                                     when you go
  85.                                                                                     I'll leave
  86.                                                                                     the light on
  87.                                                                                     and the door
  88.                                       
  89.              
  90.                                                                                                         unlocked
  91.                                                                                                             to
  92.                                                                                                            my  
  93.                                                                                                           heart
  94.
