Cellar Door Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Cellar door, what's the use
Cellar door are you open to find me
Iron ore shields remorse
When I look, I look to your beautiful name
And find you're not the same

[Verse 2]
Cellar door, what's the case
Are you locked in your shadow's embrace
Do you feel so insane?
That you don't, you don't want to show me your face
But I, I can relate

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Holding on, to everything, that makes us bleed

[Chorus]
Overflowing underneath my pretty face
With the presence of the haste
Now they're saying don't believe anything
But I do believe I know you well

[Verse 3]
Cellar doorologist
Your therapy is the one I love best
You give me strength to confess
That I, I will not last very long
So soon, I'll be gone
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Oh these walls, know everything, and I'm tired of being lost inside

[Chorus]
Overflowing underneath my pretty face
With the presence of the haste
Now they're saying don't believe anything
But I do believe I know you well

Overflowing underneath my pretty face
With the presence of the haste
Now they're saying don't believe anything
But I do believe I know you well

[Bridge]
Love will come to me and I will not remain
Hover over these confused contaminated veins
Love will come to me and I will not remain
Hover over these confused contaminated veins
Hey ya hey ya, hey ya hey ya

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
