The end...the perfect song...the most mysterious and captivating...a magical tune that takes you out of your place and time to some ancient magical worlds while keeping you in touch with the cruelty of this life...the most beautiful and destructive song I've ever heard.
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 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 calling us The blue bus is calling us Driver, where are you taking 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 hallway And he came to a door And he looked inside "Father?" "Yes, son?" "I want to kill you" "Mother, I want to..." Come on, yeah Come on, baby, take a chance with us Come on, baby, take a chance with us Come on, 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! Fuck, fuck-ah, yeah Fuck, fuck Fuck, fuck Fuck, fuck, fuck, yeah C'mon baby, c'mon Fuck me baby, fuck yeah Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, yeah! Fuck, yeah! C'mon baby Fuck me baby, fuck, fuck yeah Whoa, whoa, yeah, fuck, yeah C'mon, yeah Alright 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
The end The end O' God all mighty who other than Jim Morisson to have blessed all of our ears with this song in the early January days of '67. The song where it is a beautiful send off for the debut of this legendary band. The doors it is like a eagle flying off into the night to reach it's home only to be striken down by a bolt of lightning falling down into cold hard rock to have it's skull shattered when it hits said rock bringing a aagonizing horrible fate and send off to the poor eagle it's final moments from the bolt of lightning til' the rock hits the large bird's head it is in a world of pain and regret. This album is a must listen and can be listened too and interpreted many ways.
