<b>The House Jack Built</b> by <i>Guus Meeuwis</i><br />open doors so I walk inside

close my eyes find my place to hide

and I shake as I take it in

let the show begin

open my eyes

just to have them close again

well on my way

on my way to where I graze

it swallows me

as it takes me in his home

I twist away

as I kill this world

open doors so I walk inside

close my eyes find my place to hide

and I shake as I take it in

let the show begin

open my eyes

just to have them close once again

don`t want control

as It takes me down and down again

is that the moon

or just a light that lights this deadend street?

is that you there

or just another demon that I meet?

the higher you walk

the farther you fall

the longer the walk

the farther you crawl

my body my temple

this temple it tells

"step into the house that Jack built"

the higher you walk

the farther you fall

the longer the walk

the farther you crawl

my body my temple

this temple it tells

"yes this is the house that Jack built"

open doors as I walk inside

swallow me so the pain subsides

and I shake as I take this in

let the show begin

the higher you walk

the farther you fall

the longer the walk

the farther you crawl

my body my temple

this temple it tells

"yes this is the house that Jack built"

the higher you walk

the farther you fall

the longer the walk

the farther you crawl

my body my temple

this temple it tells

"yes I am I am I am"

open my eyes

it swallows me

is that you there

I twist away

away

away

away
