Lyrics Doors Are Open - Kings of the City

Doors Are Open

Shes no longer a big part of your small life
Still you see her in your dreams
When the doors are open
There’s no space for all components
Soaking in the ocean and the sea
Well there’s no purpose for the old circus in the furthest side of town
Said they will always be around
When the doors are open
There’s no time to pause in motion
Floating like a boat on solid ground
(Ali Bla Bla)
I guess I’m just a mere mortal
Looking for a portal to another realm
Coz day to day monotony has left me overwhelmed
My mind echoes the sound of regret
Thinking what might have been
If things were a little more inspiring
I take a look at this old man that’s retiring
And know in my heart that things didn’t go to plan
I guess his success is relative to his cleverness
But he will still die owning no land
Who have I become?
I’m comfortably numb
I hate to be loved
I love to be glum
It’s easy being dumb
Going nowhere is fun
At least I know where I belong
And I like to hide from the sun
Should have stayed in my mum
Wouldn’t say it to her face
A coward with no grace
Every hour is a race
To the last moments of my life
When I’m finally put in my place
I watch my little brother making the same mistakes
Maybe it takes being invaded to close the gates
Stuck in my loner ways I’m feeling like a joke today
But what’s the point?
There’s clearly no start or end
Forever tip toeing around the edge
When it’s time for my judgement ill have no knees left to beg
Please accept my head, seeing red is often calming
To some alarming, summers charming for a man that’s farming
Perhaps I’m yet to see the earth
Perhaps I was dead before birth
Perhaps I’ll be happy at worse
As if being last was much better than first
I’m living in the dirt
Forgive me I’m hurt
But I’ve never felt pain
The silence is great
And the night is my day
But I like the dismay
It’s the only thing exciting I say
I’m a knife with no blade
That you won’t learn to hold or obey
(Danny Wilder)
She’s no longer a big part of your small life
Still you see her in your dreams
When the doors are open
There’s no space for all components
Soaking in the ocean and the sea
When the doors are open
There’s no space for all components
Soaking in the ocean and the sea
