There’s one reckoning,
coming to us all.
One of very few things
you can count on.
There’s only two doors to this world.
And we already walked through one.
When that door opens
How you gonna go?
I want to see it coming
I want to know
Got to hold on, head high, eyes wide
Stay awake and realize.
Reached the end of this ride.
I want to die alive.
Want to let go when the time is right,
Looking with love at an open sky
As a last breath comes from deep inside,
I want to die alive.
We are so often lost
mired in our mind,
confused and neurotic,
our investment keeps us blind.
Society’s insanities,
deliberate design.
Ignores a reality
you've got to dig to find.
There’s only two doors to this world.
And we're all walking out in time.
Wish to stay awake
Will to take the pain
Wish for the sky to clear
Willing to disappear!
