lyrics
Here we go, here we go, I don’t care anymore
Take the escalator to the mezzanine floor
I’ve been talking to a man that I’ve seen here before
And I’m sold
The man with the plan offers one guarantee
I’m ready and he’s waiting with a ticket for me
Checkmate, feel the weight of decisions I’ve made
Sevenfold
Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh
Walking through the city of bad doors
Hoping I can get what I came for
Searching every street for a savior
Walking through the city of bad doors
Day or night, day or night, there’s no ending in sight
Crashing into windows in perpetual flight
Ask the man on the corner could you give me a light
There’s no answer, there’s no answer
So I’ll hitch a ride but I can’t pay the cost
Maybe I’ll walk forever in the land of the lost
No reverse, feel the curse as it’s spreading across
Like a cancer, like a cancer
Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh
Walking through the city of bad doors
Hoping I can get what I came for
Searching every street for a savior
Walking through the city of bad doors
Trying to put an end to this cold war
Risking everything on one last score
Walking through the city of bad doors
