Outside The Door Lyrics

Jon Oliva's Pain Outside The Door

As I walk in the shadows of darkness
Without a place to hide
You know I cant help but look over my shoulder
Im waiting for the knife to arrive

And I know I might seem a little bit paranoid
You know, its just my way
Sometimes I get the feeling Im on borrowed time
Anyway, thats what most of us say

Somethings taking over me
I dont know just what could it be
Feels strange, like a kind of glow
What it is I dont want to know

And in another life I swear Ive heard it all before
And in the dead of night
It sits just outside the door

I believe that tonight Ill be wasted
Cant stop me when Im out on the town

You know, I wake dreaming about tomorrow
And what it may all bring to light
You know, I believe all men were created equal
Red, yellow, black or white

Somethings taking over me
I dont know just what could it be
Feels strange, like a kind of glow
What it is I dont want to know

And in another life I swear Ive heard it all before
And in the dead of night
It sits just outside the door

I believe that tonight Ill be wasted
Cant stop me when Im out on the town
I can feel it, I can taste it
Cant stop me when Im out on the town
