Minimal Lyrics by Matt Nolan

Behind Closed Doors EP

2016

Verse 1:
One by one
We're falling down
And the burning sky
Is our crown

Find the kings
On their knees
Gold is dirt now
You're the same as me

We built our houses
Huge and tall
And now one by one
We watch them fall

Break our ego
Break our hold
One quick strike
The world's restored

Chorus:
Now, this is my way
Now, this is my way
To tell you what I think
Where we've gone wrong (2x)

I wonder what's left
Are we still the best
When we're stripped
To the minimal version (2x)

Verse 2:
Now we're lost
In time and space
A higher force
Put us in our place

So, this is my message
These are my ways
Down below
We're all the same

Different colors
Different plays
But the same people
In the same race

We're drowning in blood
These are painful days
And the blood will flow
Until we change

Chorus:
Now, this is my way
Now, this is my way
To tell you what I think
Where we've gone wrong (2x)

I wonder what's left
Are we still the best
When we're stripped
To the minimal version (2x)

Verse 3:
Now, let's fight
Whose God would win?
If they had a fight
If they chose to sin

We're so self-centered
That's the plague of man
Why would God
Need the worship of ants?

Behind His name
Is where you go to hide
To mask the fact
That you're dead inside

You're spreading fear
You're taking lives
And expect rewards
When you die

Chorus:
Now, this is my way
Now, this is my way
To tell you what I think
Where we've gone wrong (2x)

I wonder what's left
Are we still the best
When we're stripped
To the minimal version (2x)
