Lyrics
[Intro] 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 [Verse 1] Open my eyes just to have them close again (Yeah) Well on my way (Yeah), but on my way to where I've been It swallows me as it takes me in its fog Mm, I twist away as I give this world the nod [Refrain] 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 [Verse 2] Open my eyes (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 you there, or just another demon that I meet? [Chorus] The higher you are, the farther you fall The longer the walk, the farther you crawl My body, my temple, this temple, it tilts Step into the house that Jack built The higher you are, the farther you fall The longer the walk, the farther you crawl My body, my temple, this temple, it tilts Yes, this is the house that Jack built, yeah [Guitar Solo] Yeah [Refrain] Open door, yes, I walk inside Swallow me so the pain subsides And I shake as I take the sin Let the show begin (Let the show begin, let the show begin) [Chorus] The higher you are, the farther you fall The longer the walk, the farther you crawl My body, my temple, this temple, it tilts Yes, this is the house that Jack built The higher you are, the farther you fall Longer the walk, the farther you crawl My body, my temple, this temple, it tilts Yes, I am, I am, I am [Outro] Open my eyes It swallows me Is that you there? I twist away Away Away Away
