Who's Behind The Door
°ßÂí(Zebra) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We sailed away
We walked 2 thousand miles
And then we slipped away
We looked so hard
But couldn't seem to find just what
The world was for
Now we know
Just what the journey's for

Looking out to the stars
Think about what you are
What do they think of you
Animals in their zoo
They haven't got the time
Landing's not on their minds
How do they have the nerve
We're animals in preserve

They watch us all
They're only making sure that we
Don't trip and fall
Now they look so hard
But they can't tell us why they're
Here and just what for
Because they don't know
Who opened up the door


How can we find out more
Who owns the keyless door
Where does the circle end
Who are the unwatched men
Where do we go from here
Faith is a fading fear
Life is a waiting room
I hope they don't call me soon


How much more do you really




Think you know than a flower
Does about who's behind the door
!

Overall Meaning

The song "Who's Behind the Door" by Zebra seems to be talking about a journey of self-discovery and the search for purpose. The lyrics describe a voyage that starts with sailing away and walking for thousands of miles without knowing the purpose of the journey. It's all about understanding the point of existence and figuring out why we embark on certain journeys.


The second verse talks about how other entities might view us humans. Looking out at the stars, the singer questions what animals in a zoo might think about us. The animals might not have the time or mental capacity to understand us, just like we might not understand who or what is watching over us. It's a thought-provoking verse that highlights existential questioning.


The final verse of the song talks about the search for answers and the uncertainty that comes with it. Who owns the keyless door and who are the unwatched men? The singer expresses a fading fear about faith and portrays life as a waiting room. The final line suggests that humans might not have any more knowledge than a flower about who's behind the door- meaning that we might never understand the bigger picture no matter how much we search.
