Definite Door

by The Posies

on Frosting On The Beater (1993)

Say goodbye to your friends and family
Pack your promises silently
Leave a note on your kitchen table
This is all you will ever be

So hope for a better place at a better time at a better speed
Hope for a better use for a better word and a better need
And if you listen close enough
You might hear too much
Hard as sharp and razor-rough
You've never seen the such

It's the definite door
To another dimension
Nothing no more
Not even a mention

Keeping track of the eyesight streaming
Isn't part of the regimen
Many hours of sleepless dreaming
Unaware of the mess you're in
And if you didn't have a clue
You probably never will
And all the things you didn't do
Will inundate you still

It's the definite door
To another dimension
Nothing no more
Not even a mention

Better cross your heart, make it people-proof, try to fight the fright
And have a real good trip, see you when you fall, don't forget to write yourself back

And if you fail to see the point
Of doubting all you do
Don't forget to blame yourself
There's nothing else for you

Say goodbye to your friends and family
Welcome to the menagerie
Funny how they forget to tell you
This is all you will ever be

This is all you will ever be now
This is all you will ever be
This is all you will ever be now
This is all you will ever be
