Artist/Band: Depeche Mode
Lyrics for Song: Death's Door
Lyrics for Album: Until The End Of The World Soundtrack



Well I'm knocking on Death's door
Will I take my rest
Among the blessed?

Mother are you waiting?
Father are you pacing?
I'm coming home

I'm knocking on Death's door
Will I take my rest
In my sunday best?

Mother are you anxious?
Father are you gracious?
I'm coming home

I've been away too long
For so long it was strong
I've been away too long
I know that it was wrong
But I'm coming home

Well I'm knocking on Death's door
Will I take my rest?
Have I passed the test?

Mother are you praying?
Father I'm saying
I'm coming home


Death's Door

Depeche Mode's "Death's Door" serves as a haunting centerpiece on the soundtrack for the film *Until the End of the World*. Released in 1991, the track exemplifies the band's signature blend of new wave and electronic textures, characterized by its driving bassline and atmospheric synths. The song was recorded during the height of the group's second era, a period defined by a darker, more introspective sonic palette that moved away from their earlier synth-pop roots. As a key component of the film's score, the recording underscores themes of existential dread and technological alienation, reflecting the narrative's exploration of a future where humanity faces the consequences of its own actions. The composition remains a staple of the band's discography, illustrating their ability to craft evocative soundscapes that resonate beyond the studio.
