Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Did not take to analysis
So I had to make up my mind
And hold it for a while
I would not just leave you without a kiss
But I guess there must come a time
When there's no more tears to cry
[Verse 2]
Thieves and snakes need homes
Need homes
Barricade
[Verse 3]
Starts to feel like a barricade
To keep us away
To keep us away
It kind of does
Starts to feel like a barricade
To keep us away
Keep us away
[Verse 4]
I could not lean on the politics
'Cause I didn't wanna train my eye
To hold so short the time
Oh so high, just don't know
Where the blind could lead the sightless
But I still like to witness
[Verse 5]
Thieves and snakes need homes
Need homes
Barricade
[Verse 6]
Starts to feel like a barricade
To keep us away
To keep us away
It kind of does
Starts to feel like a barricade
To keep us away
Keep us away
[Verse 7]
Full speed, half blind
Full tilt, decline
We turn to past time
Full speed, half blind
[Verse 8]
You know us
You know us
[Verse 9]
We need some
I'm sorry
And the plan
Say, I'm sorry
[Verse 10]
Sometimes it feels like a barricade
To keep us away
Keep us away
It kind of does
How much fear can you fabricate
To keep us away
Keep us away
You know us
[Verse 11]
Full speed, half blind
Full tilt, decline
We turn to past time
Full speed, half blind
Full speed, half blind
Full tilt, decline
On to old times
Full speed, half blind
