Cowboy Bebop Gotta Knock A Little Harder
Happiness is just a word to me
And it might have meant a thing or two
If I'd had known the difference
Emptiness, a lonely parody
And my life, another smokin' gun
A sign of my indifference
Always keepin' safe inside
Where no one ever had a chance
To penetrate or break in
Let me tell you some have tried
But I would slam the door so tight
That they could never get in
Kept my cool under a lock and key
And I never shed a tear
Another sign of my condition
Fear of love or bitter vanity
That kept me on the run
The main events at my confession
I kept a chain upon my door
That would shake the shame of Cain
Into a blind submission
The burning ghost without a name
Was still calling all the same
But I just wouldn't listen
The longer I'd call
The further I'd crawl
The further I'd crawl
the harder I'd fawll
I was crawlin' into the fire
The more that I saw
The further I'd fall
The further I'd fall
the lower I'd crawl
I kept fallin' into the fire
Into the fire
Into the fire
Suddenly it occured to me
The reason for the run and hide
Had totaled my existence
Everything left on the other side
could never be much worse than this
But I could go the distance
I face the door and all my shame
Tearin' off each piece of chain
Until they all were broken
But no matter how I tried
The other side was locked up so tight
The door it wouldn't open
Give it all that I got
And started to knock
Shouted for someone
To open the lock
I just gotta get through the door
And the more that I knocked
The hotter I got
The hotter I got
the harder I'd knock
I just gotta break through the door
Gotta knock a little harder
Gotta knock a little harder
Gotta knock a little harder
Break through the door
