Whoa, gatekeeper
I've seen the levees in your eyes
Whoa, gatekeeper
There is an ocean on the rise
I know that it's hard times to be tender
I know you got it bad
I know that this world is needing menders
Not ascetics slaying dragons in their heads
Whoa, gatekeeper
You got a cantilever frown
Whoa, gatekeeper
You know the walls of Babylon came down
I know that it's hard times to be tender
I know you're feeling mad
I know that at best it's still a bender
And you're swimming in the water you won't tread
Whoa, gatekeeper
I've seen the way you hold your chin
Whoa, gatekeeper
You know that doesn't keep you in the end
