lyrics

There's an ugly red door
In my hallway, down on R street
On it's written all the things I'll never be
And how I'll die in this menagerie

Dress me up and call me God
I'll play my role in this comic tragedy
Contemplating all the things they'd rather be
And singing hymns in this menagerie

This is the last time
Run, run
Away from the walls, away from me
Before we die in this menagerie

Dressed me up and called me God
I played my role in this comic tragedy
Miming lines and all the reasons I believed
They wouldn't die in this menagerie

This is the last time
Run, run
Away from the walls, away from me
Before we die in this menagerie

City walls, they wont keep me running out on this
Everything must have an end
Has the fight we sought been done, did it ever exist?
Everything must have an end

There's an unclear red door
In my hall way, down on our street
On it's written all the things I'll never be
And how I'll die in this menagerie
