In

 unlocked

[Chorus]
        
  Bite my lip 

and

to paradise

like
         
a dog in heat
         
Barred indoors

 and
              
I've lost the 


key

[Chorus]
        
  Bite my lip 

and
       
close my eyes
         
Take me away
   
to paradise

  I'm so damn

[Verse 3] (Bass)
       
  I sit around

 and
          
watch the phon

e
              
But no one is 


calling
          
  Call me path

etic call
            
me what you wi

  
ll
          
  My mother sa

ys
         
to get a job
              
But she don't 


like
              
the one she's 


got
           
When masturbat

ion's
         
lost its fun y

ou're
        
fucking lonely


[Chorus]
        
  Bite my lip 

and
       
close my eyes
         
Take me away
   
to paradise

  I'm so damn 
        
bored I'm goin

g
            
blind And lone

  
liness
    
has to suffice
        
  Bite my lip 

and
       
close my eyes

Slowly slipping
      
away to paradi

se
          
  Some say "Qu

it
         
or I'll go bli

nd"
              
but it's just 

  
a myth
