Make One Through the Night

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I found the voice of an angel It came quicker than before I reached for the open doorway But Ryder’s lips sealed the door [Pre-Chorus] Then Anthony’s case rose up A wall I couldn’t see Every route I tried to follow Turned its back on me [Chorus] Why does everything always block it? Why does every path lock tight? I carry one small answer And it vanishes from sight Why does everything always block it? I push until my hands go white If nobody leaves a passage I’ll make one through the night [Verse 2] So I had to go through myself With my shoulders turned sideways I smiled with my horrible teeth Like a warning in a doorway [Pre-Chorus] Then Sean’s egg head rolled in A pale and perfect wall I asked the room for one clear inch The room gave me it all [Chorus] Why does everything always block it? Why does every path lock tight? I carry one small answer And it vanishes from sight Why does everything always block it? I push until my hands go white If nobody leaves a passage I’ll make one through the night [Bridge] Ryder, move your mouth Anthony, move your case Sean, take that egg-shaped barricade Away from my face I’m not asking for a kingdom I’m not asking to be free Just one clean line of breathing room Between the world and me [Final Chorus] Why does everything always block it? Why does every path lock tight? I found the voice of an angel Now I’m fighting for its light Why does everything always block it? Let the walls collapse tonight If nobody leaves a passage I’ll become the passageway [Outro] I found the voice I found the door I found the way They blocked it once more
