Public

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You ask me for the code I smile, then I hold it One side for the room One side for my own breath My name on the screen But not every door gets it I can let you in Or keep my world encrypted [Pre-Chorus] Public on the table Private in my palm One opens every window One stays locked calm Say what you want You still can’t make me fold I choose who gets the gold [Chorus] Public key, public key Open the crowd, but not me Private key, private key Mine to keep, mine to keep Public key, public key Come through the gate, if I say Private key, private key You don’t get every thing [Verse 2] You love the shiny door I love the hidden handle Easy looks so cute Till the whole thing starts to scramble I’ll share the bright side Let the whole room read it But deep in my pocket Is the part that keeps me breathing [Pre-Chorus] Public on the table Private in my palm One opens every window One stays locked calm Say what you want You still can’t make me fold I choose who gets the gold [Chorus] Public key, public key Open the crowd, but not me Private key, private key Mine to keep, mine to keep Public key, public key Come through the gate, if I say Private key, private key You don’t get every thing [Bridge] If you know the door That’s not the whole of me If you hold the light You still can’t touch my key You can see my face You can’t read my safe Try to take the lock I’ll laugh it off and walk away [Chorus] Public key, public key Open the crowd, but not me Private key, private key Mine to keep, mine to keep Public key, public key Come through the gate, if I say Private key, private key You don’t get every thing [Outro] Public key Private key My name, my rules My lock, my release
