As One Door Closes

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Skullkruncher13] They trapped me inside of Aperture Science (Crap) Where chatty AIs are lacking compliance (Snap) Been napping a while, the lab is so quiet (Woah, woah) GLaDOS is yappin' but I am happily silent (Shh) I question if I should ask her for guidance (No) As I grab a device, a crafty appliance (Cool) I'll get through hazardous trials, deadly assignments I've been traveling like a dimensional pilot Bye, gravity, I would rather defy it Why think inside of the box? I'm stepping outside it (Oh) I was promised cake, but I'm back on a diet (Damn) And I've yet to decide if GLaDOS is lyin' (Probably) She's acting all nice, she's actually violent (Why?) Her cameras are live, she'll laugh as you're dying (Bye) Like the mass homicide of Aperture Science (Yikes) "What happened to my morality? Fried it" That's it, GLaDOS, I quit [Chorus: Andrea Storm Kaden] As one door closes Another opens But there are no keys See, I control them My test has begun Now that you've woken Your dreams of freedom Keep you in motion [Verse 2: Skullkruncher13] If I can't find a door to get through A portal will do, just connect orange and blue (True) Ignore personality cores who try to be cordial (Sure) A moral code ain't what they normally use (Ooh) I might have side effects of isolation (I'm okay) I spied somebody and then I tried to chase em (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey) But all I'm finding is myself, I'm kinda shaken Feels like a paradox that I might be makin' Am I flying down or falling up? (Fallin' up?) 'Cause the guide I had has gone corrupt, yup (Corrupt) The writing on the wall's enough (Wall's enough) To find all her lies, and call her bluff (Call her bluff) My companion cube, I'm not forgetting you Remember all the times that you helped get me through? Rest In peace my friend, but your death's avengable When I make GLaDOS a sentient vegetable Forget the cake, now that she's edible [Chorus: Andrea Storm Kaden] As one door closes Another opens Live hands me lemons But I don't hold them I'm keeping secrets Can you decode them? I had a conscience But it was broken [Verse 3: Skullkruncher13] Another test, I can pass that (Please) Impossible? I think I'll have a crack at (Easy) Too bad that it took me this long to see GLaDOS snapped, and I'm nothing but her lab rat (Oh no) Fact, never mess with Aperture Science (Why?) Accept death, cuz they'll never ask for your silence (Oh) "We do what we must because we can" So just lock 'em up, and run tests on them Black Mesa (Who?), no competition (Nope) It's in the name, Aperture got the vision (Got the vision) Bring your daughter to work if you want her missin' (Want her missin'?) It'll become her grave, if it's not her prison This is a half-life that I can't live anymore in Just forming portals, wormholes I'm borin' But let me test out your turret performance As you send me off with an uplifting chorus [Chorus: Andrea Storm Kaden] As one door closes Another opens You will have no friends Because you smoked them We all have secrets Now we can show them I know you well, Chell I'll let you go then [Bridge: Andrea Storm Kaden] I'll stay behind I like it inside More tests to run down here, and besides You've overcome all odds to survive We'll see how long you make it outside [Outro: Andrea Storm Kaden] Surprised you're still alive It's time for you to die And I'll still be alive And I'll still be alive And I'll still be alive And I'll still be alive And I'll still be alive
