This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes...again
Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need...of some...stranger's hand
In a...desperate land
Lost in a Roman...wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain, yeah
There's danger on the edge of town
Ride the King's highway, baby
Weird scenes inside the gold mine
Ride the highway west, baby
Ride the snake, ride the snake
To the lake, the ancient lake, baby
The snake is long, seven miles
Ride the snake...he's old, and his skin is cold
The west is the best
The west is the best
Get here, and we'll do the rest
The blue bus is callin' us
The blue bus is callin' us
Driver, where you taken' us
The k**ler awoke before dawn, he put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he
He walked on down the hall, and
And he came to a door...and he looked inside
Father, yes son, I want to k**l you
Mother...I want to...WAAAAAA
C'mon baby,--------- No "take a chance with us"
C'mon baby, take a chance with us
C'mon baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus
Doin' a blue rock
On a blue bus
Doin' a blue rock
C'mon, yeah
K**l, k**l, k**l, k**l, k**l, k**l
This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
It hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die
This is the end

n 1969, Morrison stated:

Everytime I hear that song, it means something else to me. It started out as a simple good-bye song... Probably just to a girl, but I see how it could be a goodbye to a kind of childhood. I really don't know. I think it's sufficiently complex and universal in its imagery that it could be almost anything you want it to be.[9]

Interviewed by Lizze James, he pointed out the meaning of the verse "My only friend, the End":

Sometimes the pain is too much to examine, or even tolerate... That doesn't make it evil, though – or necessarily dangerous. But people fear death even more than pain. It's strange that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death. At the point of death, the pain is over. Yeah – I guess it is a friend...[10]

Shortly past the midpoint of the nearly 12-minute long album version, the song enters a spoken word section with the words, "The k**ler awoke before dawn..." That section of the song reaches a dramatic climax with the lines, "Father / Yes son? / I want to k**l you / Mother, I want to..." (with the next words screamed out unintelligibly).[11] Ray Manzarek, the former keyboard player for the Doors, explained:

He was giving voice in a rock 'n' roll setting to the Oedipus complex, at the time a widely discussed tendency in Freudian psychology. He wasn't saying he wanted to do that to his own mom and dad. He was re-enacting a bit of Greek drama. It was theatre![12]

I almost posted 'This Is The End,' L-J, but hesitated. I remember it well from my Viet Nam days. I was then reminded, once again, of the song and lyrics from the movie 'Apocalypse Now.' Haunting lyrics, indeed. :|

The Doors remain one of my top five bands of all-time. The others :?: The Beatles, The Eagles, Blood Sweat & Tears, and Creedence Clearwater Revival. 8-)

lindajoy Loc: right here with you....

You have excellent taste slatt and better than any juke box for songs, that's for sure...Believe it or not I was not bug on Morrison at first, and only certainly songs of the Beatles.Now The Eagles, BS&T and Creedence, yesssssssss Sirirrreeeeeeee!!!

The End was and is haunting to me is so many ways..It often used to make me think of what I wanted in life..Really~~

Three of their very best, SOL My oldest son, when a toddler, used to dance around the room to the carousel music at the end of 'Spinning Wheel.' 'You Make Me So Very Happy' is my favorite B,S, & T record.

What did you think of 'Lucretia McEvil,' & 'God Bless The Child?'

Sons of Liberty Loc: look behind you!

I love the jazzy blues of God Bless the Child. The lyrics are spot on as well.

Sons of Liberty Loc: look behind you!

A classic from yet another great band...

Although, IMO, the great (best?) rendition is by B,S & T...Billie Holiday's stands as the original classic version.
