Metallica - The House Jack Built lyrics

Open doors so I walk inside<br>Close my eyes find my place to hide<br>And I shake as I take it in<br>Let the show begin<br><br>Open my eyes<br>Just to have them close again<br>Well on my way<br>On my way to where I graze<br>It swallows me<br>As it takes me in his home<br>I twist away<br>As I kill this world<br><br>Open doors so I walk inside<br>Close my eyes find my place to hide<br>And I shake as I take it in<br>Let the show begin<br><br>Open my eyes<br>Just to have them close once again<br>Don't want control<br>As it takes me down and down again<br>Is that the moon<br>Or just a light that lights this deadend street? <br>Is that you there<br>Or just another demon that I meet? <br><br>The higher you walk<br>The farther you fall<br>The longer the walk<br>The farther you crawl<br>My body my temple<br>This temple it tells<br>'step into the house that jack built'<br><br>The higher you walk<br>The farther you fall<br>The longer the walk<br>The farther you crawl<br>My body my temple<br>This temple it tells<br>'yes this is the house that jack built'<br><br>Open doors as I walk inside<br>Swallow me so the pain subsides<br>And I shake as I take this in<br>Let the show begin<br><br>The higher you walk<br>The farther you fall<br>The longer the walk<br>The farther you crawl<br>My body my temple<br>This temple it tells<br>'yes this is the house that jack built'<br><br>The higher you walk<br>The farther you fall<br>The longer the walk<br>The farther you crawl<br>My body my temple<br>This temple it tells<br>'yes I am I am I am'<br><br>Open my eyes<br>It swallows me<br>Is that you there<br>I twist away<br>Away<br>Away<br>Away
