The Green Door

by No Need For A Name   Sep 3, 2007


(Chorus)
From the radio signal
To the back of our head
Behind the green door
Are the lies we are fed

Now I know that you have questions
Answers aren't so clear cut
I know we all have obsessions
Things we can't stop

Now don't hear it in the air
Burning sensations in our ears
Sharp screams enhance our fears
Shrouded in a sense of disspare
Now its not as obvious as a tomb
But flashes tell you what to do
They try to lie they try to tell you
There's secret conversations in the room

(Chorus)
From the radio signal
To the back of our head
Behind the green door
Are the lies we are fed
From the closing in walls
To the suffocation
Behind the green door
Is the end of a nation

Now your questioned have some answers
To the best of my ability
But like a growing cancer
They'll weaken your humanity

Now we've ran out of good luck
The closing walls just won't stop
Don't know who'll come out on top
Covered tracks with a nip and tuck
Now blood will stain some hands
Of future cold war child and man
They said it wasn't part of the plan
But the green door stands where it stands

(Chorus)
From the radio signal
To the back of our head
Behind the green door
Are the lies we are fed
From the closing in walls
To the suffocation
Behind the green door
Is the end of a nation

We are better then you say
And we stand here ready to scream
We fight againt the status quo
The green door barricade will be broken through

(Chorus)
From the radio signal
To the back of our head
Behind the green door
Are the lies we are fed
From the closing in walls
To the suffocation
Behind the green door
Is the end of a nation

    This is my personal favorite part of this poem/song. I like the metaphor of the green door. The rhymes that were used were different and offten time I found myself wondering why you put together some of the rhymes that you did.

    This is a poem that I've been waiting for on this site. It has sparked something in the imagination of it's reader. For that I thank you.

    Great poem and look foward to more

    When I saw that it was a dark poem I knew I would like it. This one doesn't seem to flow as well, though, especially in the second stanza.

    A few spelling mistakes:
    3rd stanza, 7th line need a comma after '...to lie'
    5th stanza, should it be questions? instead of questioned.

    I loved the comparison to cancer in the 5th stanza. Really well written.
