Gatekeeper |
| You’ve lost touch |
| You’ve lost touch with the outcasts |
| Have you forgotten your own past? |
| Have you forgotten that your house is made of glass? |
| So while you’re pointing your fingers |
| You are unable to use your hands |
| To help with solving |
| Solving real and present problems |
| 'Cause we’re appealing |
| And you’ve become too perfect to understand |
| You’re a gatekeeper |
| Blocking the entrance to nowhere |
| You’re a gatekeeper |
| Trying to keep others in despair, yeah |
| Trying to keep others in despair |
| I don’t want you to get dirty reaching down to a lowly creature |
| I don’t want you to show mercy and make me like you, self-righteous preacher |
| Did you think you were the only one |
| The only one who held the keys? |
| Did you hope that your judgement would |
| Spread just like a disease? |
| You’re a gatekeeper |
| Blocking the entrance to nowhere |
| You’re a gatekeeper |
| Trying to keep others in despair |
| The self-importance of the moral elite |
| To think that their approval means anything, yeah |
| So eager to capitalize |
| Capitalize on other people’s pain |
| But when the healing begins |
| So quick to turn away |
| Have you forgotten? |
| Have you forgotten your own past? |
| You’re a gatekeeper |
| Blocking the entrance to nowhere |
| You’re a gatekeeper |
| Keeping others in despair |
