Sound of White Noise B-side

Boards are on the windows
The doors are bolted shut
There's a tattered old welcome mat
To give you a clue as to where you're at
If you look hard enough you'll trace down the path

Whatever it is,
it bears the cross if you decide to wait
No matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gates

All my dreams are violent
Crippled emotionally
Content inside my fortress
To explain with me, I'd have to ask this
That's a whole to ask from me again

Whatever it is,
it bears the cross if you decide to wait
No matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gates
It may be hard to fathom,
to consider myself ----------
But no matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gates

Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates

Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates

Some men buy the roses
Take it far too serious
The walls that keep me inside
Are there to make sure you stay outside

Whatever it is,
it bears the cross if you decide to wait
No matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gate
It may be hard to fathom,
to consider myself ----------
But no matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gate

Whatever it is,
it bears the cross if you decide to wait
No matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gate
It may be hard to fathom,
to consider myself ----------
But no matter how much force you use,
you can never get past the gate

Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
Can't get past the gates,
can't get past the gates
