What “I Slipped Your Lock with a Grin” is about

A person sings to someone whose heart they broke. They admit to having stolen the 'key to their heart' and running away, but now they feel the weight of their actions. They wonder if they can ever fix what they broke and if the other person would ever let them back into their life.

I Slipped Your Lock with a Grin lyrics

I slipped your lock with a grin Took the gold and disappeared Left your name upon my lips With the truth I couldn't hear But the chain still burns on my palm And your door keeps calling me home I look back once, then I'm gone Yeah, I know what I stole I stole the key to your heart and I ran and I ran and I ran I stole the key to your heart and I don't know if I can Unlock what I broke, put it back where it started I stole the key to your heart, then I fled away I stole the key to your heart and I ran and I ran and I ran I stole the key to your heart and I don't know if I can Unlock what I broke, put it back where it started I stole the key to your heaNow it rattles in my coat Like a secret I can't hide Every road leads back to you Though I keep on running blind But the chain still burns on my palm And your door keeps calling me home I look back once, then I'm gone Yeah, I know what I stole If I handed it back tonight Would you let me stand inside Or would you turn the bolt And leave me on the other side? I stole the key to your heart and I ran and I ran and I ran I stole the key to your heart and I don't know if I can Unlock what I broke, put it back where it started I stole the key to your heart, then I fled away
