Zipper

Verse 1    

    You can't keep me in

     I will never stay

    Release your jagged grip

     It will happen that way

   (chords continue for 1 line)

    Yes, it will happen that way

 

Verse 2

    I will shove and budge

    Right past the other ones

    Down that hall of mirrors

    Staring into the sun

   (chords continue for 1 line)

    Yes, staring into the sun

 

Chorus

    So tell me please

    What is your remedy

    To release me from this freeze

 

    I feel that I have tried everything

    But now it's time to stop

 

Verse 3    

    Just need a breath of air

    Or a glimpse of light

    To get my mind prepared

    For this final flight

   (chords continue for 1 line)

    Yes, for this final flight

 

Verse 4

There is no time to waste

No not another try

Release this emptiness

With one final pry

(chords continue for 1 line)

Yes, with one final pry

 

Chorus

    So tell me please

    What is your remedy

    To release me from this freeze

 

    I feel that I have tried everything

    But now it's time to stop

 

Outro

    It's time to stop

    It's time to stop

    It's time to stop

    It's time to stop

    It's time to stop

A song idea I had one morning when I was sitting in my bed looking at the cotton filling to a pillow. I think the concept extends beyond the pillow itself, but I suppose that is up for debate.
