The House That Jack Built

Open door so I walk inside
Close my eyes, find my place to hide
And I shake as I take it in
Let the show begin
Open my eyes just to have them closed again
Well on my way, but on my way to where I've been
It follows me as it takes me in its fog
I twist away as I give this world the nod

Open door so I walk inside
Close my eyes, find my place to hide
And I shake as I take it in
Let the show begin

Open my eyes just to have them closed once again
Don't want control
As it takes me down and down and down again
Is that the moon
Or just a light that lights this dead end street
Is that you there
Or just another demon that I meet

The higher you walk, the farther you fall
The longer the walk, the farther you crawl
My body, my temple, this temple it tilts
Step into the house that Jack built

The higher you walk, the farther you fall
The longer the walk, the farther you crawl
My body, my temple, this temple it tilts
Step into the house that Jack built

Open door as I walk inside
Swallow me so the pain subsides
And I shake as I take it in
