The Door Songtext
von Noah Floersch

I′m the opposite of anything you might wanna believe in
Cause I don't even believe in myself
And if a door is closed, it stays that way
And if it′s open, I might shut it
Cause the sound leaks in and I get overwhelmed
And every time I wake up, I get disappointed
By some shit I didn't do the day before
And that's another problem that I have to deal with
And I hate it and can′t take it anymore


And I′m a kid on the sideline just kicking at grass
Cause the other team is bigger and they're kicking my ass
And so the coach, he pulls me out, sits me down and has a laugh
And he says, "Kid, you shoulda stuck with band"
And I′m a boat upon the ocean and the waves are getting big
And all my knots are falling loose and the hull is giving in
And there's a monster in the water and it′s giving me a grin
And saying, "Man, you shoulda stayed on the land"

Well, I didn't get to pick this life, but thank God I didn′t
Cause if I did, I'd be some asshole with a view
Overlooking a big city with nobody else with me
Just some money and a bottle of booze
So at least I have my people I can drink with
And they like me most the time, I like to think
And we drink and cheers and toast to each other and to ghosts
Of the people who aren't with us anymore

There′s a hole in the ground at the end of it all
And sometimes I swear I can hear it breathing
And other times I think there′s a place for you and me
The problem is it's waiting just behind a door
The problem is it′s waiting just behind a door
