The Doors

The Doors were an American rock band formed in 1965 in Los Angeles, California, with vocalist Jim Morrison, keyboardist Ray Manzarek, drummer John Densmore and guitarist Robby Krieger. The band took its name from Aldous Huxley's book The Doors of Perception, the title of which was a reference to a William Blake quotation: "If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite." They were among the most controversial rock acts of the 1960s, due mostly to Morrison's wild, poetic lyrics and charismatic but unpredictable stage persona. After Morrison's death in 1971, the remaining members continued as a trio until finally disbanding in 1973. more »

This is the end, beautiful friend 
This is the end, my only friend, the end 
Of our elaborate plans, the end 
Of everything that stands, the end 
No safety or surprise, the end 
I'll never look into your eyes, again 

Can you picture what will be, so limitless and free 
Desperately in need, of some, stranger's hand 
In a, desperate land 

Lost in a Roman wilderness of pain 
And all the children are insane, all the children are insane 
Waiting for the summer rain, yeah 
There's danger on the edge of town 
Ride the King's highway, baby 
Weird scenes inside the gold mine 
Ride the highway west, baby 
Ride the snake, ride the snake 
To the lake, the ancient lake, baby 
The snake is long, seven miles 

Ride the snake, he's old, and his skin is cold 
The west is the best, the west is the best 
Get here, and we'll do the rest 
The blue bus is callin' us, the blue bus is callin' us 
Driver, where you taken us 

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on 
He took a face from the ancient gallery 
And he walked on down the hall 

He went into the room where his sister lived, and, then he 
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he 
He walked on down the hall, and 
And he came to a door, and he looked inside 
Father, yes son, I want to kill you 
Mother, I want to, f*ck you 

C'mon baby, take a chance with us 
C'mon baby, take a chance with us 
C'mon baby, take a chance with us 

And meet me at the back of the blue bus 
Doin' a blue rock, on a blue bus 
Doin' a blue rock, c'mon, yeah 
Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill 
This is the end, beautiful friend 

This is the end, my only friend, the end 
It hurts to set you free 
But you'll never follow me 
The end of laughter and soft lies 
The end of nights we tried to die 
This is the end
