Lyrics
15 keys
15 keys hang on a chain
The chain is joint
The chain is joint and forms a ring
The ring is in
The ring is in a woman's hand
Who's walking on
Walking on the dusty ground
The dusty ground's a dead-end track
The neighbours won't be coming back
15 gardens overgrown
15 houses falling down
The woman's old
The woman's old and dressed in black
She keeps her hands
Keeps her hands behind her back
The numbers painted on her doors
Poster's on the locked up church
I think of how life would have been
We asked but she won't let us in
A key so simple and so small
How can it mean no hope at all?
A key's a promise or a wish
How can it mean such hopelessness
"A circle is broken", she says
"A circle is broken", she says
Writer(s): Polly Jean Harvey
