Lyrics - 'The Gatekeeper'

So basically while I was sleeping, or when I was falling asleep I came up with a really cool name for a new song. 'The Gatekeeper' is a metaphor for death actually, and although that might sound a little morbid, it's actually not. It's kind of about the transition from a place of uncertainty to a place of being complete. In the way that all things must come to and end. I suppose it has echoes of break-ups and the concepts of religion and God in there too?
Anyway my songs tend to morph as I write them and the original lyrics I had in my head I didn't write down so I wrote some new ones for the title yesterday on a whim. I was listening to some John Mayer and it got me all inspired and the like. This songs gonna be a big one. Here's a few lines:

'The Gatekeeper'

I thought there was water
in between the rock
and the sugar divine
filing down,
smaller and more wholesome
as we shuffle down the line

On our way to mattering
to meaning most-
to living a lie.

The Gatekeeper,
he knows
eyes fall upon us
his judgement burns like snow,
it's funny no one noticed
it's funny no one knows...

...


Just a draft really, but I am loving the phrase 'smaller and more wholesome as we shuffle down the line'
I suppose what's meant by that is how the blueprint of life seems so much richer and satisfying before it's done, and when it's over you are left wondering what really matters. The Gatekeeper represents our conscience in a way, we are the ones that truly judge ourselves and decide whether we are forgiven or not...

Wondering whether I should put up my old songs I didn't put online, and all the lyrics?

K.A.M
