[Verse 1]
[Neil Gust]
The daylight never kills
This old parasite
It just makes it restless and
Stronger every night
[Neil Gust, Elliott Smith]
Up the plywood ramp
Covered in flecks of white
Reading the flashcard faces underneath
The purple light
[Chorus]
[Neil Gust]
Who's behind the door?
The searchlight's flashing
Can't wait anymore
Under legs collapsing
[Verse 2]
[Neil Gust, Elliott Smith]
Can't you hear the bell
Drowning out the thought
Like a burning antiseptic smell
Who cares if I get caught?
'Cause I don't wanna wait
For the right guy to appear
I just need someone to touch
That's why we're all here
[Chorus]
[Neil Gust, Elliott Smith]
Who's behind the door? I
Lost another hour
Can't wait anymore
They're gonna cut the power
Well have we already met? There's
No recognition
You wanna start again, 'cause
I've got ambition
Hoooo-yeah!
[Verse 3]
[Neil Gust]
I'm not gonna wait
For the right guy to appear
I just need someone to touch
That's why we're all here
[Chorus]
[Neil Gust, Elliott Smith]
Who's behind the door? I
Lost another hour
Can't wait anymore, they're
Gonna cut the power
Well have we already met? There's
No recognition
You wanna start again, 'cause
I've got ambition
Hoooo-yeah!
