[Verse 1]

Gatekeeper, where's there's no wise leader

There be no brighter lighter

But you keep letting it in

Let it in, let it, let it in let it, let it in


[Verse 2]

Gatekeeper, here is your read-minder

There is a kinder teacher

But will you let 'em in?

Let 'em in, let 'em, let 'em in, let 'em, let 'em in


[Verse 3]

Gatekeeper, there be no rhyme reason

Hopeful the right season comes so we can begin again

To begin again, we begin again, again, and then


[Verse 4]

Gatekeeper, surely a strange kinder helper to come later

But that's not the journey's ending

Just an ending, just an ending


[Bridge 1]

Like a city without a wall you are open to anything

Lose the government of your soul 'cause you're so open to anything

Well, don't go listening to the voice of a stranger - don't, don't, don't, don't

Don't you go listening to that voice


[Bridge 2]

Like a city without a wall you are open to everything

See you flirting in the danger zone, trying to be all things to all men

Won't you take your stand when you get hurt?

Haven't learnt your lesson when you feel it burn?

Fired up? It should get you fired up!

Still it's aching? Fire up!

Got to get to you - get fired on all cylinders


[Interlude]

You should be a kinder teacher to me

But will you let me in? No, no, no

Will you let me in? No, no, no, no, no


[Outro]

Don't fade away - why you have to fade away?

Why you gonna have to fade away?

You don't have to fade away

That's not how the story was supposed to end

Let's begin again, let's start again

You don't have to fade away, away, away
