There are barn doors
And there are revolving doors
Doors on the rudders of big ships
We are revolving doors
There are doors that open by themselves
There are sliding doors
And there are secret doors
There are doors that lock
And doors that don't
There are doors that let you in
And out
But never open
But there are trapdoors
That you can't come back from
And there are revolving doors
Doors on the rudders of big ships
We are revolving doors
There are doors that open by themselves
There are sliding doors
And there are secret doors
There are doors that lock
And doors that don't
There are doors that let you in
And out
But never open
But there are trapdoors
That you can't come back from

The doors seem to be paths of life, yeah. Rotations in our life, we are revolving doors. Its true. I wanna focus on the music and that. There's that constantly cycling drum beat, and every 20 seconds it repeats a little more noticeably. Like deja-vu. And those parts where the music goes into trippy spirals, it's like the interesting and dramatic parts of life that interrupt the grinding cycle of day. This could focus on one person, or maybe society as a whole. The trapdoors part could be a bad choice by someone that didn't seem too big, then cascaded into a huge disaster, on an apocalyptic scale. That would be why it goes all spooky at the end. The cycle of life, coming to an end. Maybe.
