Death's Door

I look at myself as the reflection I wish to see But what I project just is not me Is not me What more could you ask of a man shattered and put back together? I wear the stains, the cracks, the flaws Forever But until the trauma has taught me what I need to know I'll close off, shut down, a lonely march on death row Forever judged by the things I'd say Yet my actions have no weight to this day I'm told the mountains too high to climb The walls too strong to breach Death's door opens, to swallow me whole I'm told the mountains too high to climb And the skies too high to reach Death's door opens, I've lost control There's something haunting me Telling me that it all ends tonight All ends tonight There's something haunting me Telling me that it all ends tonight All ends tonight I ask for mercy As I journey across dark water Sound feet and silent breath A terrifying dance with death I'm told the mountains too high to climb The walls too strong to breach Death's door opens, to swallow me whole I'm told the mountains too high to climb And the skies too high to reach Death's door opens, I've lost control I've seen the gates of hell From grace I fell Redemption is the story I'll tell Death's door opens, to swallow me whole I've seen the gates of hell From grace I fell Redemption is the story I'll tell Death's door opens, I've lost control Death at the gates again Howling my name Cannot greet you today I've got a war to win Death at the gates again Howling my name Cannot greet you today I've got a war to win
