Better Open the Door

You better open the door

Before I take a hammer to the walls around it

I cannot let you inside my cell

For fear I'll sink the ship and drag us both down

Our hell ends every weekend

But it's all I have to believe in

Our hell ends every weekend

But it's all I have to believe in

Matt makes his murderous demand

Foreign films, I take a stand

And it's all uphill from here

At least I hope so

Kate claims she can't depend on me

For anything and I agree

It's crystal clear

I reach for the bottle and disappear

Our hell ends every weekend

But it's all I have to believe in

Our hell ends every weekend

But it's all I have to believe in

Frank fails to see the humor in

My sad attempts at breakdancing

In every bar

Along Lyndale Avenue

Liz likes to liquor up my thoughts

From the C.C. Club to the Triple Rock

There's no escape

From the chorus of people screaming

You better open the door

Before I take a hammer to the walls around it

I cannot let you inside my cell

For fear I'll sink the ship and drag us both down

Our hell ends every weekend

But it's all I have to believe in

Our hell ends every weekend

But it's all I have to believe in

I'll swim backwards, I'll swim backwards

I'll swim backwards, I'll swim backwards

I'll swim backwards, I'll swim backwards

I'll swim alone the long goodbye

You better open the door

Before I take a hammer to the walls around it

I cannot let you inside my cell

For fear I'll sink the ship and drag us both down
