Outside Door Songtext
von David Wilcox

My movie house it holds me prisoner

All boarded up on a dead-end street
In my darkest doubts I′m the only visitor
Sunk down inside these dusty seats
This world of mine in two dimensions
It shocks my brain with all I feel
That flickering lie will build the tension
And I brace for pain like it was real

I can't stop the scene from playing
Trying ain′t worth dying for
It won't change but I'm not staying
I just found the outside door


The old film that rolls I know the story
For all my years it′s been the same
I see my old moment of glory
Fall to my fear and find my shame
It leaves my heart empty and shallow
No happy end and no relief
In that endless dark my cave of shadows
I still suspend my disbelief

Standing in the morning wonder
Never seen the sun before
Broke the spell that I was under
I just found the outside door

No silver screen no satin curtain
My state of mind plays this whole show
The illusion seems to be so certain
That I′m trapped inside with nowhere to go

Inside this war with dark projection
I try to scream but have no voice
There is a door an outside exit
We can be free we have a choice

I can't stop the scene from playing
Trying ain′t worth dying for
It won't change but I′m not staying
I just found the outside door


Standing in the morning wonder
Never seen the sun before
Broke the spell that I was under
I just found the outside door

I just found the outside door
