Deadbolt Lyrics

When deadbolts awake you from deja vu dreams,
At four in the morning you know where I'll be.
Out running red lights asleep at the wheel.
The sirens feed my nightmares,

I just close my eyes and I'm already there;
Its already too late.
I know its nothing but lies,
But they sound so sincere;
I find them too hard to hate.

And she calls from the doorway "stolen water is so sweet,
So lets drink in the darkness if you know what I mean"
And she calls from the doorway "stolen water is so sweet,
So lets drink in the darkness if you know what I mean"

And I'm almost sure
That I've been here before,
That this is not the first time I've stood in front of this door,
With an overwhelming feeling that I shouldn't go in,
But it seems this is a battle that I never could win.

And you!
My true love!
You call from the hilltop.
You call through the streets,
"Darling don't you know,
The water is poison."
And I say!
"come on and give me my poison."

What have I done.?
Is it too late to save me from this place?
From the depths of the grave?
We all are those
Who thought we were brave.
What have I done.?

What is the Meaning of Deadbolt?

Ever feel like you're stuck in a repetitive nightmare? 🤯 This song seems to explore the struggle with temptation and the feeling of déjà vu in bad decisions. The singer talks about being lured by something irresistibly sweet but ultimately destructive, symbolized by "stolen water." Despite warnings from a true love, he feels trapped in a cycle he can't escape, facing overwhelming regret and realization about his actions. The recurring theme of being haunted by past choices gives a sense of doom and introspection. This track really delves into the internal conflict between seeking comfort in the familiar, even when you know it's poison.
