Wash the sand off of my chest,
Let the kingdom erode into my heart,
I'll be free once he grabs my hand,
And the sun will shine on my transparent skin,
Revealing everything I've ever kept secret from the ones I love and loved.

Unlock the doors in front of me, my friend,
I'm not an enemy to life but a stranger to the party,
I might say hello but I've got to hug the wall,
To keep myself on track of where I want to go.

Right now, this time, the lights will never dim,
Beyond rows of gravestones,
I'll be upon the hill and watching the sun before I go blind,
If that's the gateway to heaven then open it then,
When I'm waiting patiently.

Unlock the doors in front of me, my friend,
I'm not an enemy to life but a stranger to the party,
I might say hello but I've got to hug the wall,
To keep myself on track of where I want to go.
