Ray Manzarek - The End lyrics

[Intro] 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 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, 7 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 calling us The blue bus is calling us Driver, where you taking us? The k**er 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 he came to a door and he looked inside "Father?" "Yes son" "I want to k** you" "Mother? I want to.." [Bridge] Come on baby, take a chance with us[x3] And meet me at the back of the blue bus [Outro] 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
