Gatekeeper Lyrics
[00:22.32] You've lost touch
[00:27.24]
[00:29.93] You've lost touch with the outcasts
[00:32.03] Have you forgotten your own past?
[00:36.58] Have you forgotten that your house is made of glass?
[00:43.25] So while you're pointing your fingers
[00:47.59] You are unable to use your hands
[00:49.94] To help with solving
[00:51.89] Solving real and present problems
[00:53.97] 'Cause we're appealing
[00:56.38] And you've become too perfect to understand
[01:00.58] You're a gatekeeper
[01:04.50] Blocking the entrance to nowhere
[01:09.33] You're a gatekeeper
[01:13.27] Trying to keep others in despair, yeah
[01:22.16] Keeping others in despair
[01:24.56] I don't want you to get dirty reaching down to a lowly creature
[01:29.02] I don't want you to show mercy and make me like you
[01:31.34] Self-righteous preacher
[01:35.62] Did you think you were the only one
[01:39.77] The only one who held the keys?
[01:44.01] Did you hope that your judgement would
[01:48.35] Spread just like a disease?
[01:52.88] You're a gatekeeper
[01:56.73] Blocking the entrance to nowhere
[02:01.59] You're a gatekeeper
[02:05.45] Trying to keep others in despair
[02:09.07]
[02:13.06] The self-importance of the moral elite
[02:14.71] To think that their approval means anything, yeah
[02:19.28]
[02:39.69] So eager to capitalize
[02:44.07] Capitalize on other people's pain
[02:48.69] But when the healing begins
[02:52.91] So quick to turn away
[02:57.50] Have you forgotten?
[03:02.02] Have you forgotten your own past?
[03:06.09] You're a gatekeeper
[03:10.06] Blocking the entrance to nowhere
[03:14.92] You're a gatekeeper
[03:18.73] Keeping others in despair
[03:20.40]
[00:27.24]
[00:29.93] You've lost touch with the outcasts
[00:32.03] Have you forgotten your own past?
[00:36.58] Have you forgotten that your house is made of glass?
[00:43.25] So while you're pointing your fingers
