Open Door Lyrics


Mike Shinoda Open Door

[Verse 1]
Yeah, they tell you that you should quit trying
You are too small, that you are too young
They tell you the chance is too slim
The world is too big, but you say "how come?"
I'm ready to light a new fire
Raise a new flag to cross a new sea, and
If I'm ever the one in your way, then
Put your head down and run right through me

[Pre-Chorus]
So why keep settling for so much less?
Don't take what's given, just demand what's next

[Chorus]
We're looking for an open door
Some way we didn't see before
Some way to get out of here a
Plot twist that we didn't see coming
We're looking for an open door
Some way we didn't see before
And when we get out of here, we'll
No, no, we'll never stop running

[Verse 2]
There's some like a shadow in the valley colossal
Open up your eyes, young one, and be watchful
Behind closed doors, trying to write a new gospel
They are not God, they're not even apostles
I come with the gum drum, banging you breathless
Enemies freeze, left bent and defenseless
Straight for the chest of anybody against us
The more they resist it, the more that they tempt us

[Pre-Chorus]
So why keep settling for so much less?
Don't take what's given, just demand what's next

[Chorus]
We're looking for an open door
Some way we didn't see before
Some way to get out of here a
Plot twist that we didn't see coming
We're looking for an open door
Some way we didn't see before
And when we get out of here, we'll
Take off and never stop running

[Post-Chorus]
No, no, we'll never stop running
No, no, we'll never stop running
When we get that open door
No, no, we'll never stop running

[Bridge]
So why keep settling for so much less?
Don't take what's given, just demand what's next

[Chorus]
We're looking for an open door
Some way we didn't see before
Some way to get out of here a
Plot twist that we didn't see coming
We're looking for an open door
Some way we didn't see before
And when we get out of here, we'll
Take off and never stop running

[Outro]
No, no, we'll never stop running
No, no, we'll never stop running
Let me get that open door
No, no, no, never stop running
No, no, no, never stop running
No, no, no, never stop running
Let me get that open door
No, no, no never stop running
