Doors

Lyrics From Live Performances 1 & 2 [Verse 1] I grew up pretending sticks were little guns I would point 'em at my dad, and he'd get mad 'Cause God forbid I'd hurt someone I'd hurt anyone I could Anyone who got too close, and anyone who wouldn't look I was born into a one hundred-year storm Foot of ice across Vermont And in that dark, and in that frost, a heart was formed Malcontented and unwarm You were unprotected, not unwarned [Chorus] That I'm the trouble ahead, I used to scream in my sleep You put your money on red, I'm a sure bet at a losing strеak I keep showing you doors, that you can't open up 'Cause it gets hardеr to see me the closer you try to look [Post-Chorus] I just live here, babe, but you're the one who decided to knock You knocked [Verse 2] Have you ever stared directly at the sun? Have you ever shared some closeness, so exposed, to have it spit back by someone? So, forgive me if I jump At the rattle of your keys "Oh, are you leaving?", "No, babe, I'm just waking up" And now what? I'm left staring at the ceiling, listing reasons you should pack all your shit up [Chorus] I'm the trouble ahead, and I scream in my sleep You put your money on red, I'm a sure bet at a losing streak I keep showing you doors, but you can't open them up It gets harder to see me the closer you try to look [Post-Chorus] I just live here, babe, but you're the one who decided to knock I just live here, babe, but you're the one who decided to knock But you knocked You knocked [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] I'm the trouble ahead, and I scream in my sleep You put your money on red, I'm a sure bet at a losing streak I keep showing you doors, but you can't open them up Shit gets harder to see me the closer you try to look [Post-Chorus] I just live here, babe, but you're the one I just live here, babe, but you're the one I just live here, babe, but you're the one [Bridge] You're the one You're the one You're the one You're the one You're the one You're the one You're the one And you knocked [Outro] You're on horses (You knocked) You're driving through the highway (You knocked) You get angry at the cars for leaving you behind And throwing it in your face (You knocked) We're on horses (You knocked) You're riding through the highway (You knocked) You get angry at the cars for leaving us behind And not doing it your way (You knocked)
