Cellar Door

Rust on the lock

Dust on the floor

It's been too long

To know what's in store

Pieces of the past

Memories to explore

All that's left behind

Is what we knew before

And all we thought would be there

Might not be around anymore

And though we try

To stand there and ignore

What lies behind the door

We'll take our fears

And shake them to the core

As we reach out for

Something more

With a canon's cry

The bombs, they soar

Nothing left to hear

But the sounds of war

Darkness falls

While the echoes roar

At the end of time

A new life is born

We never thought we'd be here

Afraid of an open door

'Cause all we thought would be there

Might not be around anymore

Now that the tides

Have burned up all the shores

And the sky is torn

Though all our fears

Shake us to the core

Still we reach out for

Something more

But all we'll find was not there before

We went inside and closed the cellar door

All this time we've heard nothing more

Since we went inside and closed the cellar door

And all we'll find was not there before

We went inside and closed the cellar door

All this time we've heard nothing more

We all went in to hide

But now it seems it's time

We need to step outside

The cellar door
