Gatekeeper
Unlocking Life's Doors: A Deep Dive into 'Gatekeeper' Meaning
Lyrics
Gatekeeper, gatekeeper what keys do you hold?
Questioning the gatekeeper about the access or opportunities they control.
Gatekeeper, gatekeeper how are you so bold?
Wondering about the gatekeeper's confidence or audacity.
Preventing intrusion is your noble cause
Recognizing the gatekeeper's purpose as preventing unauthorized entry.
This is an illusion, the Wizard of OZ
Suggesting that the gatekeeping might be a facade, comparing it to the illusion in "The Wizard of OZ."
I once had a dream where there where two doors
Recalling a dream with two doors, signifying choices or paths.
I knew it's importance but not what's in store
Understanding the significance of the choice but not its outcome.
Whichever I picked I wish there would be more
Desiring more options despite having choices, possibly hinting at dissatisfaction.
My family was there, yet this was my own chore
Feeling responsible for personal decisions despite the presence of family.
Gatekeeper, gatekeeper why are you so mad?
Questioning the gatekeeper's anger or frustration.
Gatekeeper, gatekeeper glad tidings aren't bad
Noting that the gatekeeper's news or announcements aren't negative.
The time you spend worrying who passes by
Commenting on the gatekeeper's focus on who is allowed passage.
Yet time's the illusion your spending to buy
Reflecting that worrying about who passes is a misuse of time, hinting at time being an illusion.
One path
Emphasizing the singular nature of the path or choices available.
That's all we are given
Highlighting the limitation of having only one path or opportunity.
We get one life
Stating the singular life that is lived until its conclusion.
Lived to the end
Confirming the inevitability of living one life until the end.
Wanting more
Expressing the desire for more options, leading to uncertainty.
Keeps me second guessing
Indicating how the desire for more choices causes hesitation or doubt.
Still the time flows
Noting the continuous passage of time despite desires or uncertainties.
On to the end
Observing that time moves forward regardless, leading to an eventual conclusion.
Gatekeeper, gatekeeper what keys do you hold?
Repeating the initial question about the gatekeeper's control.
Gatekeeper, gatekeeper how are you so bold?
Reiterating the curiosity about the gatekeeper's confidence.
