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 |
