Lyrics
Noisegate
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sound of White Noise B-side
Boards are on the windows
The doors are bolted shut
There's a tattered old welcome mat
To give you a clue as to where you're at
If you look hard enough you'll trace down the path
Whatever it is,
it bears the cross if you decide to wait
No matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gates
All my dreams are violent
Crippled emotionally
Content inside my fortress
To explain with me, I'd have to ask this
That's a whole to ask from me again
Whatever it is,
it bears the cross if you decide to wait
No matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gates
It may be hard to fathom,
to consider myself ----------
But no matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Some men buy the roses
Take it far too serious
The walls that keep me inside
Are there to make sure you stay outside
Whatever it is,
it bears the cross if you decide to wait
No matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gate
It may be hard to fathom,
to consider myself ----------
But no matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gate
Whatever it is,
it bears the cross if you decide to wait
No matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gate
It may be hard to fathom,
to consider myself ----------
But no matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gate
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
