Lyrics

Behind the door
The poison door
We search the still hours
Looking for a place to hide
Behind the door
Where dreams collide
Behind the door
The poison door
We sit in silence waiting
For a deadly friend
Behind the door
Where dreams descend
And the shadows smile
Lips dark and wild
The shadows smile
And kiss the sky, the sky
Behind the door
The poison door
The puppets dance on a burning floor
Like dying flames
Behind the door
Shoot me down again
Behind the door
The poison door
We search the still hours
Looking for a place to hide (for a place to hide)
Behind the door
Where dreams collide (where dreams collide)
Behind the door
The poison door
We sit in silence waiting
For a deadly friend (for a deadly friend)
Behind the door
Where dreams descend (where dreams descend)
And the shadows smile (the shadows smile)
And kiss your memory goodbye
And the shadows smile (the shadows smile)
But their lips are shh...
And the shadows smile (the shadows smile)
Lips dark and wild
And the shadows smile (the shadows smile)
Kiss your memory goodbye
And the shadows smile (shadows smile)
Lips dark and wild
And the shadows smile (shadows smile)
And kiss the sky
