Genesis - The Chamber Of 32 Doors lyrics

Your rating:
Running around to all the doors
 They try to find, find themselves an audience
 Their deductions need applause

 The rich man stands in front of me
 The poor man behind my back
 They believe they can control the game
 But the juggler holds another pack

 I need someone to believe in, someone to trust
 I need someone to believe in, someone to trust

 I'd rather trust a countryman than a townman
 You can judge by his eyes, take a look if you can
 He'll smile through his guard
 Survival trains hard
 I'd rather trust a man who works with his hands
 He looks at you once, you know he understands
 Don't need any shield
 When you're out in the field

 But down here
 I'm so alone with my fear
 With everything that I hear
 And every single door, that I've walked through
 Brings me back, back here again
 I've got to find my own way

 The priest and the magician
 Singing all the chants that they have ever heard
 And they'll calling out my name
 Even academics, searching printed word
 My father to the left of me
 My mother to the right
 Like everyone else they're pointing
 But nowhere feels quite right

 And I need someone to believe in, someone to trust
 I need someone to believe in, someone to trust

 I'd rather trust a man who doesn't shout what he's found
 There's no need to sell if you're homeward bound
 If I choose a side
 He won't take me for a ride

 Back inside
 This chamber of so many doors
 I've nowhere, nowhere to hide
 I'd give you all of my dreams, if you'd help me
 Find a door
 That doesn't lead me back again
 - Take me away
