Lock And Key by Rush
Lyrics & Translation
English
I don't want to face the killer instinct
Face it in you or me
We carry a sensitive cargo
Below the waterline
Ticking like a time bomb with a primitive design
Behind the finer feelings this civilized veneer
The heart of a lonely hunter guards a dangerous frontier
The balance can sometimes fail
Strong emotions can tip the scale
Don't want to silence a desperate voice
For the sake of security
No one wants to make a terrible choice
On the price of being free
I don't want to face the killer instinct
Face it in you or me
So we keep it under lock and key
Lock and key
It's not a matter of mercy, it's not a matter of laws
Plenty of people will kill you for some fanatical cause
It's not a matter of conscience
A search for probable cause
It's just a matter of instinct, a matter of fatal flaws
No reward for resistance
No assistance, no applause
I don't want to face the killer instinct
Face it in you or me
So we keep it under lock and key
I don't want to face the killer instinct
Face it in you or me
So we keep it under lock and key
Lock and key
Don't want to silence a desperate voice
For the sake of security
No one wants to make a terrible choice
On the price of being free
I don't want to face the killer instinct
Face it in you or me
So we keep it under lock and key
I don't want to face the killer instinct
Face it in you or me
So we keep it under lock and key
Lock and key
We don't want to be victims
On that we all agree
So we lock up the killer instinct
And throw away the key

Lock And Key (traducción LyricVerse Team)
No quiero enfrentar el instinto asesino
Enfrentarlo en ti o en mí
Llevamos una carga sensible
Debajo de la línea de flotación
Marcando como una bomba de tiempo con un diseño primitivo
Detrás de los sentimientos más finos, este barniz civilizado
El corazón de un cazador solitario guarda una frontera peligrosa
El equilibrio a veces puede fallar
Emociones fuertes pueden inclinar la balanza
No quiero silenciar una voz desesperada
Por el bien de la seguridad
Nadie quiere tomar una elección terrible
Sobre el precio de ser libre
No quiero enfrentar el instinto asesino
Enfrentarlo en ti o en mí
Así que lo mantenemos bajo llave
Llave y candado
No es cuestión de misericordia, no es cuestión de leyes
Mucha gente te matará por alguna causa fanática
No es cuestión de conciencia
Una búsqueda de causa probable
Es solo cuestión de instinto, cuestión de defectos fatales
Sin recompensa por la resistencia
Sin asistencia, sin aplausos
No quiero enfrentar el instinto asesino
Enfrentarlo en ti o en mí
Así que lo mantenemos bajo llave
No quiero enfrentar el instinto asesino
Enfrentarlo en ti o en mí
Así que lo mantenemos bajo llave
Llave y candado
No quiero silenciar una voz desesperada
Por el bien de la seguridad
Nadie quiere tomar una elección terrible
Sobre el precio de ser libre
No quiero enfrentar el instinto asesino
Enfrentarlo en ti o en mí
Así que lo mantenemos bajo llave
No quiero enfrentar el instinto asesino
Enfrentarlo en ti o en mí
Así que lo mantenemos bajo llave
Llave y candado
No queremos ser víctimas
En eso todos estamos de acuerdo
Así que encerramos el instinto asesino
Y tiramos la llave
