The Open Door
They say when one door closes another opens.
100 more have opened in its place
This don't will never shut.
I drank of his blood
Swam in his tears
I watched the flames surround me
And come out the other side
I waged war with the demons within
I found peace in His grace
I found love in a ravens embrace
Hold a gun to my head
And I have lived 1000 more times
They say when one door closes another opens.
The next door is open
Time now for the next greatest adventure
