The Door
Neal Morse

I - Introduction (instrumental)nnII - In the name of GodnnGiving up the time we've got to live the life completelynGiving over to the lust that rageous in the mindnThe Captain fills his place with gold while all the ship is sinkingnCalls himself the Bishop-Prince and blood's his favorite winennGardens grow as people know and sense the smell of slaughternEvery soul in Saxon senses something's gone awrynThe woman's in the wilderness - the beast has nearly got hernMen sorround the Bishop-Prince and sing their bloody crynnIn the name of God you must dienAll that's not our truth is a lienIn the name of God you must dienIn the name of God you must dienIf you want some teeth just ask whynIn the name of God you must diennThe pearl is trodden underfoot into the muck and mirenWe'll take the Roman Gods except the names will all be changednThe woman's fed by ravens and her feet are in the firenCold and bare she's holding there 1260 daysnnIn the name of God you must dienAll that's not our truth is a lienIn the name of God you must dienIn the name of God you must dienWe won't let a sleeping dog lienIn the name of God you must diennAnd the Captain callsnIf they won't pay they're soon be scratching the dungeon wallsnFrom the highest height to the tenement halls - it's truenLook out we're coming for younnIn the name of God you must dienIn the name of God you must diennIII - All I ask fornnFree me - know menOnly you can make the morning minenLowly - humblynAs the sunlight lights the waynnThis is all I asked fornThis is all I wanted to donIs to live with you forevernAnd feel the beauty of your truthnThis is all I asked fornTo live a life that's pleasing to younAnd be there ever afternYou know my heart: you know it's truennBravely, strongly - You have left the veil of death behindnSomething drawing me out into your waynnThis is all I asked fornThis is all I wanted to donIs to live with you forevernAnd feel the beauty of your truthnThis is all I asked fornTo live a life that's pleasing to younAnd to be there ever afternYou know my heart: you know it's truthnnAll I want is younnOh God I seek the glory that's from you and from you onlynOh God I seek the glory that's from younI seek your light through the veil of lifenPlease come and make me holynOh God I seek the glory that's from youn(This is all I ask for)nOh God I seek the glory that's from youn(To live a life that's pleasing to you)nOh God I seek the glory that's from younOnly younnIV - Mercy for salennIn the name of God you must pay your penancenIf you don't well that's a crimenIf you want to buy your way to HeavennWe'll indulge you every timenWould you like to come?nWe'll eat in secretnMy water's stolen but it's finenIf you want know much more about menTake a look in Proverbs 9nnMercy, mercy we're selling mercynWe are Christ and we'll bless you wellnPeople crying Lord have mercynBut they've gone in through the gates of hellnIt's true, look out we're comin' for you!nnIf you think the whore is only historynAre there those who teach her lies?nWherever they believe what came out from hernThat same spirit is still alivennMercy, mercy we're selling mercynWe are Christ and we'll bless you wellnPeople crying Lord have mercynBut they've gone in through the gates of hellnIt's true, look out we're coming for you!nnV - Keep silentnnHow can I keep silent when I know the truth?nHow can I stand idly by with the previleged few?nThere's criminals in power; the keepers of the lienThey say you've got salvation when they know you're gonna diennI don't wanna be the one to bring the curtain downnI'd much rather stay at home and keep what I have foundnBut Jesus didn't call me to do what I would donSo how can I keep silent when I know the truth?nnWhat is it that binds me? What can keep me down?nAnd in my very heart of hearts who shall wear the crown?nBut as I read and as I bleed, oh, my heart is fixednAnd if I follow blind men, well, we'll all fall in the ditchnnI don't wanna be the one to bring the curtain downnI'd much rather stay at home and keep what I have foundnBut Jesus didn't call me to do what I would donSo how can I keep silent when I know the truth?nnOh Lord I can't justify what the ones above me donOh Lord I can testify nothing more or less will donAnd I'll be your witness in the wildnThe dragons stands in front of menThe virgins been defiled, Oh God...nnHow can I keep silent when I know the truth?nI ask myself one question: What will Jesus do?nnI don't wanna be the one to bring the curtain downnI'd much rather stay at home and keep what I have foundnBut Jesus didn't call me to do what I would donSo how can I keep silent when I know the truth?nnVI - Upon the doornnSometimes comes a moment when there is no escapenA man by candlelight reads: The just shall live by faithnAnd a rushing ray of light comes and hits him at the corenI will write my words upon the doornnHistory is hinged on him playing of the rolenThe dawn was coming after the dark night of the soulnThe simple act has changed our world forever morenI will write my words upon the doornI will write my words upon the doornnMartin saw the jailer with the woman in her bednWith simple words of life he struck the seventh headnThe witness stands before the dragon and the whorenI will write my words upon the doornI will write my words upon the doornnn
