He is a Vampire. Light- In the doorway- Shining so bright- In the doorway- I clench your hips- For the flesh- You tore my prose- In the doorway- Animal lie- Like the doorway- As you hide- Hear it then- Will you let me in- Let me in- Oh- In the doorway- We were so young- In the doorway- Release the black dogs- On our breasts- We'll never rest- We'll never rest- We'll never forget- I ain't never gonna let you rest- Oh, oh, oh, oh- Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Jim Morrison was a laughable overated drunk, I definitely hear the similarities, but remaking a Doors song just gives them way too much credit. You ever listen to "the end" sober? What a stupid rambling mess. "wow man, listen to that awesome organ solo!" Danzig is too good to cover 60's excessive, drug induced, phsycedelic garbage like the Doors. Misfits didnt need drugs, they barely knew how to play their instruments, and they still blow the doors out of the sky. Fuck the lizard king
@cockicidal4 ummm why are the misfits and the doors being compared in the same sentence?? thats fucking lame...both were equally great frontmen and morrison was an amazing poet as glenn was a frightening frontman with an amazing aura of darkness about him as he still is...dont dog on good music just shut the fuck up and listen...your opinon doesnt count anyways loser
Its weird, i dont recall hearing this on static age from the box set, i assume it was one of the untitled tracks when the album was released by itself
i have done it, after dead kings rise, i will have heard every misfits, samhain, danzig, gorgeous frankenstein, kryst the conqeror, dr. chuds x-ward, and grave song ever!!!!!!! fang you for posting this my good freind
A lot of their songs are based on B movies: Vampira, Return of the Fly, Earth 2150 AD for the album earth AD and they used to play old b movies at there shoes while setting up.
@njlacrosse9 you don't know what you are talking about. look at the fonts on any misfits or danzig posters.....look familiar? maybe like old b horror posters? hmmm.....
@luenskie You clearly don't know what I meant by that. "Fucked up" as in, oh, I don't know, talking about killing babies and collecting skulls. I'm not saying his writing is bad.
I'm thinking this song is about one of these three things:
1) He murdered a girl in a doorway a long time ago and is trying to forget it but can't.
2) He murdered a girl in a doorway for tearing up his love poem and rejecting him.
3) He's with someone in a sort of purgatory after death.
I got that last one from the fact that he's seeing light in the doorway and asking to "let him in" and then saying "we'll never rest" but I don't know.
how come I've never heard this one? I got the coffin boxset - it's not on any cd. good tune.
