Iron Doors Lyrics

I know you see me as I am
This time I don't know where to begin
This is the moment I was looking for

Our words are bouncing off the floor
I hear them carrying our distress
Is this the moment we've been looking for?

I know you think you mean the best
I'll wait and see if this is worth it
I know you see me the way I was before

Oh you can find me
Just the way you did when this began

I have closed the iron doors
The things I keep
From growing out
I know you'll hate
The way I feel
Eyes watering
I am disguised
You saved us all

I know you see me as I am
This time I don't know where to begin
This is the moment I was looking for

I know you think you mean the best
I'll wait and see if this is worth it
I know you see me the way I was before

Oh you can find me
Just the way you did when this began

I have closed the iron doors
The things I keep
From growing out
I know you'll hate
The way I feel
Eyes watering
I am disguised

They shivering
You were there
Never before
Singing
They're shivering
Keep you close
I am sure
You saved us all

I know you see me as I am
This time I don't know where to begin
This is the moment I was looking for

Our words are bouncing off the floor
I hear them carrying our distress
Is this the moment we've been looking for?

I know you think you mean the best
I'll wait and see if this is worth it
I know you see me the way I was before

Oh you can find me
Just the way you did when this began

I have closed the iron doors
The things I keep 
From growing out
I know you'll hate
The way I feel
Eyes watering
I am disguised
You saved us all

I know you see me as I am
This time I don't know where to begin
This is the moment I was looking for

I know you think you mean the best
I'll wait and see if this is worth it
I know you see me the way I was before

Oh you can find me
Just the way you did when this began

I have closed the iron doors
The things I keep

The way I feel
Eyes watering
I am disguised

They shivering
You were there
Never before
Singing
They're shivering
Keep you close
I am sure
You saved us all

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
