Metallica - The House That Jack Built lyrics

Open door, so I walk inside.
Close my eyes, find my place to hide.
And I shake as I take it in.
Let the show begin.

Open my eyes just to have them close again.
Well on my way, yeah, but on my way to where I've been.
It swallows me as it takes me in its fog.
Mm, I twist away as I give this world the nod.

Open door, so I walk inside.
Close my eyes, find my place to hide.
And I shake as I take it in.
Let the show begin.

Open my eyes just to have them close once again.
Don't want control, hey, as it takes me down and down and down again.
Is that the moon or just the light that lights this dead end street?
Is that you there or just another demon that I meet?
The higher you are, the farther you fall.
The longer the walk, the farther you come.
My body, my temple, this temple, it tilts.
Step into the house that Jack built.
The higher you are, the farther you fall.
The longer the walk, the farther you come.
My body, my temple, this temple, it tilts.
Yes, this is the house that Jack built.
Yeah.

Open door, yes, I walk inside.
Swallow me so the pain subsides.
And I shake as I take the sin.
Let the show begin.
Let the show begin.
Let the show begin.

The higher you are, the farther you fall.
The longer the walk, the farther you come.
My body, my temple, this temple, it tilts.
Yes, this is the house that Jack built.
The higher you are, the farther you fall.
Longer the walk, the farther you come.
My body, my temple, this temple, it tilts.
Yes, I am, I am, I aaaammmm.

I am
I am

Open my eyes.
It swallows me.
Is that you there?
Mm, I twist away, away, away, yeah, away.
