[Repeat Chorus]
Open door so I walk inside, Close
my eyes... Find my place to hide
�And I shake as I take it in,
Let the show begin!
�Open my eyes just to have them
closed again
�Well on my way... But on my
way to where I've been
�It swallows me... As it takes
me in its fog
�I twist away, As I give this
world the nod
�Open door so I walk inside,
Close my eyes... Find my place to hide
�And I shake as I take it in,
Let the show begin!
�Open my eyes, Just to have
them closed once again
�Don't want control!����
Hey as it takes me down and down and down again
�Is that the moon?����
Or just a light that lights this dead end street!
�Is that U there?����
Or just another demon that I meet!
[Chorus:]
�The higher U walk, The farther
U fall
�The longer the walk, The farther
U crawl
�My body, My temple, This temple
it tilts!
�Step into the house that Jack
built!
[Repeat Chorus]
Yeah!
{Interlude}
�Open door as I walk inside,
Swallow me so the pain subsides
�And I shake as I take the
stand, Let the show begin!
Let the show begin! Let the show
begin!
[Repeat Chorus]
�The higher U walk, The farther
U fall
�The longer the walk, The farther
U crawl
�My body, My temple, This temple
it tilts!
�As I am, I am...
�Open my eyes, It swallows me...
�Is that U there? I twist away...
Away... Away....Away...
�Where do I take this pain of
mine? I run but it stays right by my side!
�So tear me open, Pour me out!
�There's things inside that
scream and shout!
�And the pain still hates me!
So hold me, Until it sleeps!
�Just like the curse, Just like
the stray, U feed it once and now it stays...
�Now it stays!
�So tear me open but beware
�There's things inside without
a care!
�And the dirt still stains
me so wash me until I'm clean!
[Chorus:]
It grips U, So hold me... It stains
U, So hold me...
�It hates U, So hold me...
It holds U, So hold me...
�until it sleeps(until it sleeps)(until
it sleeps)
�So tell me why you've chosen
me?
�Don't want your grip, don't
want your greed
�Don't want it!
�I'll tear me open, make U
gone! No more can U hurt anyone
�And the fear still shakes
me, So hold me until it sleeps!

�So tear me open but beware,
There's things inside without a care
�And the dirt still stains
me

�And the hate still shakes
me, So hold me until it sleeps!

sleeps! Until it sleeps!
�Wish I may! Wish I might! Have
this I wish tonight!
�Are U satisfied?
�Dig for gold! Dig for fame!
U dig to make your name!
�Are U pacified?
�All the wants U waste... All the things you've chased!
[Chorus:]
�And it all crashes down, And
U break your crown
�And U point your finger but
there's no one around
�Just want one thing,�
Just to play the king
�But the castle crumbled And
you're left with just a name!
�Where's your crown King nothing?
Where's your crown?
�Hard and cold! Bought and sold!
A heart, hard as gold!
�Are U satisfied?
�Wish I might! Wish I may!
U wish your life away!
�Are U pascified?
�All the wants U waste, All the things you've chased
[Repeat Chorus]
Hoah!
�I wish I may! I wish I might!
Have this wish I wish tonight!
�I want the star! I want it
now! I want it all and I don't care how!

what U say!
�Careful what U wish! U may
regret it!
�Careful what U wish, U just

Nothing!
Oh wooh Just Nothing!
Where's your crown nothing?
Just nothing!
Absolutely Nothing!
�(Off to never never land)
( Mama they try and break me)
�The window burns to light
the way back home
�A light that warms no matter
where they've gone
�They're off to find the hero
of the day
�But what if they should fall
by someone's wicked way
�Still the window burns, Time
so slowly turns
�And someone there is sighing
�Keepers of the flames! Do
ya feel your name?
�Can't you hear your babies
crying?
�Mama they try and break me!
�Still they try and break me!
�'Scuze me while I tend to
how I feel
�These things return to me
that still seem real
�Now deservingly this easy
chair
�But the rocking stopped by
wheels of despair
� Don't want your aid but the
fist I've made
�For years can't hold or feel
�No, I'm not all me
�So please excuse me while
I tend to how I feel
[Chorus:]
�But now the dreams and waking
screams
�That ever last the night
�So build the wall, Behind
the crawl
�And hide until it's light!
�So can U hear your babies
cryin' now?
�Still the window burns, Time
so slowly turns...
�And someone there is sighing
�Keepers of the flames! Did
ya feel your name?
�Can't you hear your babies
crying?
�[Repeat Chorus]
Mama they try and break me!
Mama they try... Mama they try...
Mama they try and break me!

�A son's heart's owned to mother
�But I must find my way...
�Let my heart go, Let your son
grow
�Mama let my heart go, Or let
this heart be still...Be still!
�Rebel... My new last name,
Wild blood in my veins
�Apron strings around my neck,
The mark that still remains
�Left home at an early age,
Of what I heard was wrong
�I never ask forgiveness...
For what I said is done...
�Let my heart go, Let your son
grow
�Mama let my heart go, Or let
this heart be still
�� [Chorus:]
�� Never I ask of U, But
never I gave
�� But you gave me your
emptiness
�� that I take to my grave
�� Never I ask of U, But
never I gave
�� But you gave me your
emptiness
�� that I take to my grave
�� So let this heart be
still
�Mama now I'm coming home, I'm
not all you wished of me
�But a mother's love for her
son, Unspoken... Hear me be!
�Yeah I took your love for
granted
�And all the things U said
to me, Yeahh!
�I need your arms to welcome
me but a cold stone's all I see!
�Let my heart go, Let your son
grow
�Mama let my heart go, Or let
this heart be still!
�Let my heart go, Mama let
my heart go
�U never let my heart go, So
let this heart be still
�� [Repeat Chorus]
�Forgive me father... For I
have sinned!
�I Find me guilty of the life
I feel within

mark of shame
�Should I look down disgraced...
Or straight ahead
�And know that U must blame!
[Chorus:]
�� I am... I am�
the secret! I am... I am� the sin! I am... I am the guilty!
�� And I... I am the thorn
within!
Forgive me father... For I have sinned
Find me guilty when true guilt is
from within
So point your finger... Point right
at me!
For I am shadows and will follow
U
One and the same are we...

Little strange right along!
�Never laughed... never smiled...
Talked alone, miles and miles and miles
Gallow calls... son I say... Keep
your smile And laugh all day
�Think once again, In this
boring place
�For little boys, How they
soon change
�Now they all pray... Blood
stains wash away!

his pocket
�They'd all fall down... Down...
Down

�Time was never on my side,
So on I wait my whole lifetime...
�Outlaw of torn... Outlaw of
torn!
�And I'm torn!
�Hear me... And if I close my
mind in fear... Please pry it open
�See me... And if my face becomes
sincere... Beware!
�Hold me... And when I start
to come undone... Stitch me together
�Save me... And when U see
me strut...
�Remind me of what left this
outlaw torn!
