The song tells the tale of a man trying in vain to call down the priest to open the door of the chapel, though the priest will not come or answer.
Since the rest of the album mostly has a theme of British folk horror, the story could tell of a man cursed or hexed. He runs to the chapel to seek a b...
Knock Knock Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm stood outside the rain
I can see him up in the tower
He's no idea of the pain I'm in
And I've been knocking on his door for hours
[Verse 2]
The wind whips high in the trees
And the bells ring loud in my ears
Like a broken man on his knees
I'm holding back my pain and tears
[Chorus]
Knock, knock, knocking on the chapel door
He's ring, ring, ringing on his bell
I'm alone and so tired
And under some wicked spell
Knock, knock, knocking on the chapel door
Won't you please come down and let me in?
It's a dreadful state of affairs, my friend
That I find my bad self in
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I call up yelling in vain
And the night brings its shadows and fear
He's no idea of the pain I'm in
And he's no idea that I'm here
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Knock, knock, knocking on the chapel door
He's ring, ring, ringing on his bell
I'm alone and so tired
And under some wicked spell
Knock, knock, knocking on the chapel door
Won't you please come down and let me in?
It's a dreadful state of affairs, my friend
That I find my bad self in
[Outro]
From wood comes the fire
Burn my body, arise
With the dawning sun
From wood comes the fire (From wood comes the fire)
Burn my body, arise (Burn my body, arise; From wood comes the fire)
With the dawning sun (With the dawning sun; Burn my body, arise)
From wood comes the fire (From wood comes the fire; With the dawning sun)
Burn my body, arise (Burn my body, arise; From wood comes the fire)
(With the dawning sun; Burn my body, arise; From wood comes the fire)
With the dawning sun
