The door's wide open
               Why don't you come inside?
                              come inside?
Here lies happiness
And all you desire
I desire
Day's end
Now is its twin
It beckons
I beckon
                    Won't you come inside?
                              come inside?
Sitting pretty
Head on a silver platter
There is a tragedy
None to hold near
Unless you come in here
You cannot hide
I see you now
                    Will you come with me?
                              come inside?
All that stands in our way
The air in the open doorway
Fingers black, oh, so cold
Snow and ice dark as night
Look up, up at me
I wait quiet as can be
A frosted empty glass
Begging, fill me
                    Can't you come here, to me?
                               come inside?
                               come inside?
No longer, longer will I fight
                               come inside?
                               come inside?
The door is
                               --come inside?
                               come inside?
Wide open.
