The Door
Escape the Concrete Jungle: The Door's Revelations
Lyrics
Break neck fat race world does it taste just like it should?
Questioning the satisfaction of the fast-paced world and its consequences.
You only own what's etched in stone better get it while it's good
Emphasizing the impermanence of possessions and the need to seize opportunities.
Don't weep big city sheep I'm just trapped in your hemisphere
Expressing a feeling of being trapped in the urban environment.
You tell me what I should know and I can tell you what you want to hear
Highlighting the exchange of information and the disparity between what is known and wanted to hear.
Say tunnel vision there is no purpose served
Criticizing narrow-mindedness and the lack of a meaningful purpose.
By staying aboard this runaway wreck
Describing the negative consequences of staying on a destructive path.
While you're losing is on the curve
Referencing losses incurred while remaining on a detrimental course.
Right there's the door
Pointing to an exit or alternative in the face of adversity.
Don't knock little can't rock he's the one huffin' gasoline
Describing someone struggling with substance abuse and its impact.
Been keepin' time with a cloudy mind since they hit him with a limousine
Linking a cloudy mind to a traumatic incident involving a limousine.
Still the lil' ones eat off the cold concrete
Highlighting the harsh conditions faced by the vulnerable.
And the bleedin' hearts don't care
Criticizing indifference towards the suffering of others.
You tell me where I can go and I'll bet you that I see you there
Challenging someone to suggest a destination, confident they will meet there.
Say tunnel vision there is no purpose served
Reiterating the negative consequences of a narrow perspective.
By staying aboard this runaway wreck
Emphasizing the dangers of continuing on a destructive path.
While you're losing is on the curve
Stating losses incurred while persisting in a detrimental direction.
Right there's the door
Reiterating the presence of an exit or alternative.
Don't deny, purify said the man on the golden throne
Encouraging acknowledgment and cleansing, referencing a figure on a throne.
Guilty times have made you lie and you realize you're all alone
Recognizing the impact of guilty times leading to isolation.
So now you're throwin' stones at some old bag of bones
Describing hostility towards an old and vulnerable individual.
And you can't even knock him down
Noting the inability to bring down the targeted individual.
And there's one last thing that you should know
Teasing the revelation of important information without uttering a word.
And I can tell you without a sound
Asserting the presence of an exit or alternative without the need for words.
Right there's the door
Reiterating the existence of an exit or alternative.
