From the recording Zig Zag
Lyrics
Open a Door
V1:
One little girl, just like the others
Studied hard at school each day
Then late at night, she sat on the roof top
Watching the mountains and dreaming away
V2:
Then to her land came the Taliban
They said girls can’t go to school
But this little girl took a microphone
She went and broke their golden rule
pre-chorus:
and spoke out loud
to the crowd
Chorus:
Open a door to a world that you need to know
Open a door to a place where you wish to be
Open a door for the hope in a child’s mind
Open a door for you and me. Open a door.
V3:
15 years old, they tried to kill her
shot in the head on her bus ride home
But no one can kill, no one can stifle
the voice of a girl that strong.
pre-chorus:
not only did she survive
she won the nobel prize
Chorus
Bridge:
When your moment comes will you pull the trigger
a robot caught in a chain of command
or when your moment comes will you be the forgiver
the one to take a stand
pre-chorus:
we all should be
free
Chorus 2x
Echoes:
Open a door and let the others follow you
Open a door, open a door and walk on through
