Escape The Fate - Cellar Door Lyrics
We walk through the doorway, heard you calling from the hall
To find you in the bedroom not breathing at all
I drag your body to the cellar where we lay,
the wax it melts away, I kiss your face...
Your body's on the canvas I painted on the floor
[Chorus:]
Now you wait,
Like the drug, like the change in the pain it goes on
For so long
And oh,
How it hurts in the worst way, now that you're gone,
It's so wrong, it's so wrong....
scatter you in art forms, admire the whore
beauty in different ways, your hands on picture frames
your eyes in the glass wear your face as a mask
Now they are starting to love you more
a gallery of your beauty, no charge at the door
[Chorus:]
As you wait,
Like the drug, like the change in the pain it goes on
For so long
And oh,
How it hurts in the worst way, now that you're gone,
It's so wrong, it's so wrong....
And down below your veins run dry your vacant eyes
I lost control your face is pale, your body's cold
And down below your veins run dry your vacant eyes
I lost control your face is pale, your body's cold
(your face is pale, your body's cold)
[Chorus:]
Wait,
Like the drug, like the change in the pain it goes on
For so long
And oh,
How it hurts in the worst way, now that you're gone,
It's so wrong, it's so wrong...
It's so wrong.....[x8]

Escape The Fate Cellar Door Comments
propably not in time but what is the name of the font on the start? the one in which is written " cellar door Escape the fate"?
Beauty 🖤💔
Whose here with me in 2019?
One of the greatest tracks out there. Ronnie is one of the greatest vocalists too!
Beauty in a different way wire your face as a mask
Muy border
This song is so tragically beautiful
2019🤙🤙
Ronnie raps now and sucks at it but hey support to the change of artistry
all my adolescence * - *
Donny darko mental fragmentation
I'm not gonna lie. I've always liked Ronnie Radke better when he was with ETF. He had a good story telling with his lyrics and seemed more passionate in what he was doing. He's been through a lot since then and has become an asshole. But I don't hate the guy. I still listen to this album daily. "Dying is your latest fashion"
Still in love with this song ❤
2019? ❤️
2019 🙄
2019. Still an amazing album and song. Ronnies music was amazing now and then. Ill never stop listening.
Best vocals by Ronnie radek in my opinion
2018!!!!!
Where are my 2018's???
I like to make love when we listen this song haha...7.11.2018
Takes me back to my old emo days, goddammit 😭😂 I love it but hate it because I was such a sad little bish 🙃
It's 2018 and this song still amazing
Listening to this in 2018 💔
2018 and this song still gives me chills!!
Old escape the fate will always be better, i got out of this music long ago after my emo days but i still like ETF old shit
2018 anyone?
its 2018 and this is still my favorite song. i literally use to play this on repeat on my radio when i had the cd. and i could still do the same
2018...and I still love this shit.
1:42 I will never be completely sure if he says "wear your face as a mask", or, "where your face has a mask"
Still jamming in 2018
C'mon man I was the biggest fan
Reminds me of my emo middle school years. Still a favorite of mine!
2018 anyone?
Wow im 15 again :0...where did the time go?
Recently been revisiting all the emo songs my partner and I used to listen to when we first got together back in college. Most of them this band! I forgot how great this song is after not listening to it for years! 😍😍
Even tho i still listen this song in 2018
I reminds me world is fucked up in it own situation
I remember scoring some smack and coming home and putting this song on as I faded away.... sad but warm memories all the still
december 9, 2017?
if i could take you somewhere, id take you to the darkest place <3
September 2017! still listening. just remembered my secondary days ! ☺
i think its saying we fell in love by saying walking through door way, like they opened up to eachother, he heard her calling from the hall, i think this is more literal like she was cheating on him n u could hear her, cuz then he opens the door and shes dead, i think he means more like she died in his mind right there, and dragged her to the darkest place which would now be the empty space where his heart used to be and she caused it so thats why he put her there, sayin where his heart used to be will now only be a dark memory of how shes dead to him, the painting on the canvass is the scar of her memory left there now...
Who's watching in 3017
Aw my favorite Escape the Fate song ♡
so fucking depressing
2017!! Who is still listening to this mastepiece?
After still listening to this, all these years it still brings tears to my eyes and shivers up my spine. This song will always hold dear in my heart
Still love this song. So nostalgic, and always would be
2017 , this takes me back to highscool so baaadd... #EmoDays
Why does he sound like the guy from falling in reverse
Juane Arc it's the same guy this was his first group
because it is
Ronnie was in escape the fate for their first album only
and they say "crawling" is the most edgy song mate xdd
i remember listening this back when playing runescape xD
still listening in 2017
fucking love this song
This deserved a music video
this song is about finding a dead prostitute and mutalating her body
and oh! how it hurts in the worst way now that you're gone
same here
This is still the best underrated song ever.
eran una buena banda.. que mal que ya no sean igual las cosas. .
everyone's comments are either deep or sad and im just here thinking "is it just me or dose this song kinda sound like necrophilia at times"
dead? yes, sexual...what
I always thought it was about being an addict... Your hands on picture frames your eyes in the glass wears your face as a mask..... Now they are starting to love you more... like doing lines you know seeing your reflection but know thats not really you its just the addict in you.... and becoming addicted you truly start to love your disease. Plus painted eyes is a term for having dialated eyes for getting high
I dont know I could be wrong Im an addict to heroin and thats the vibe I get like if I wrote a love song to my disease it would be this... ronnie was addicted to heroin too around this time so I thought it was fitting but thats the beauty in music it can be whatever you need it to be
Trinity Sullivan YES I WAS JUST GONNA SAY THAT AHAHAH

This song is perfect for the book " The Cellar "
reminds me of my sceney weeny days! Lol so nostalic
😍❤️
fr😊😊😀
i was queer back in 6th grade listening to this lmao tbt
This song has been stuck in my head all day. I found out my mom was shot today. Fml
+Abysmal-Devastation no I'm not. she's dead. But she's probably living more than she ever was before.
@Madi Anstead oh...im so sorry... i didnt know im sorry ;c
@Madi Anstead also i know you never asked for it but if you need someone to talk to hit me up o.o
+Abysmal-Devastation how could you know? It's ok. It's just this song reminds me a lot, but I love it so much
@Madi Anstead ya its a good song...
it's 2016 & I'm still listening to this. songs like 10 years old & brings back so many memories. I'll always remember my emo days. Keep this alive!
colbyn lopez same!!! I used to be obsessed with them and went through an emo phase when I was in high school.
colbyn lopez too true xD
Same here bro
Almost ten years later trying to keep it alive.
colbyn lopez I miss those days I used to be able to scream right along with him but I got sick one year and ever since then I've been unable to do it and if I am it's for a short period of time and it hurts alot hahah
well now it’s 2019 & me too
sounds like crazy artist mourning over a friend who died in their sleep... my interpretation, anyway.
"And oh, how it hurts in the worst way, now that you're gone... It's so wrong."
This...made me cry because I have a friend that will leave me eventually to move on with her life. I love her... but one day, I'll have to say goodbye...
Im sorry.
I'm sorry... I know what that's like...
PIG- BOI666 hahaha!! Sorry but this is fucking funny!
PIG- BOI666 mine's still there lol😂
I really looove that song sooo much. <3
jesus this takes me back to my emo phase in middle school. i kind of credit this song with starting it.
Someone once told me this song reminded them of me. 4 years too late I finally understood the message. I feel like I've being blind my entire life. always knew this song. since before all of that. jesus. eyes wide shut.
does this remind anybody else of the jonbenet ramsey murder? she was take from her room and found dead by her parents in their cellar :'(
this song reminds me so much about my ex friend skylar he's anorexic and smokes marijuana :'( love you skylar ❤️
Never heard of an anorexic stoner before, u sure he's not hitting the pookie?
+Annie Duque that made my god damn day.
+Annie Duque omfg your amazing
Annie he is anorexic and a stoner
I met my girlfriend to this song
most depressing song ever
the lyrics are beautifully dark and emotional <3 i love it when i can feel the singers intensity. the entire song tells the story, instead of just the lyrics.
same ;-;
coming here after listening to "remember every scar"... wow etf is a sellout
I found this song on the radio, I think it's my new favorite song to be honest it's so good though!
+Dolls4infinity This song was on the radio? Unless it's like an online radio, i doubt it haha.
+Dolls4infinity The *Phan*Dom Is Everywhere.
+Smithysmithin I can believe it if it was a rock station or something
The nostalgia is killing me. I remember my brother listening to this when I was 10 years old!
did anything happened to him? :o :(
yes ,me too
your eyes in the glass wear your face as a mask
+Crys Maillet Ronnie Radke AKA LEATHERFACE
This song i pretty deadly, I really love metal music! Thanks to my sister:)
this is not metal...it is good music tho
This song isn't about death or suicide it's about a dude raping a girl drugging her and dragging her then killing her
AzSureno killing is death!
This song is meant to be interpreted in the way you want it too,
I don't think there's a specific meaning to this song but if there is we'll probably never know it..
I interpret as a lost love you can't let go of
+AlexMedina omg ur so right!
This song reminds me of Mitchell Adam Lucker ... :( RIP..
This song brings back so much memories omg !
Do anybody recommend any bands that are like old ETF and FIR?
+Shanaya Solomon hmmmm hands like houses shows passion in their music.... but try get scared first, they're a little heavier than hands like houses.
I saw hands like houses live and they suck ass
im getting necrophilia vibes from this song
It's crazy how ETF is literally a completely different band now.
I think the drummer is the only original member now.
Yeah Roberts the last one.
This is a great song and makes me feel alive!
This song was the first song that got me into metal. Holy throwback! Now I listen to deathmetal lol
+Ryan Drozda RIP Ovids Witheing
@BFMV1874 such a sad day
+Ryan Drozda more pop than metal
john gaynor same 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
a girl at my school posted this on fb just before she committed suicide in 2011, i cant think of anything else when i hear it
Sorry about that man.
I bet you it was because of billing right? or do you not know?
+Devin Boyar I met bullying not billing
@Devin Boyar im not 100% sure, mightve been, she probably had depression as well though
Devin Boyar a lot of people have bigger shit wrong with them than bullying, bullying just makes those problems much worse
This song reminds me of Mitch Lucker <3 RIP
Life us just a dream...
Death is when you wake up...
Think about it, makes sense.
Guus i figured it out... this songs about the black dalhia "scatter you in art forms" she was decaptitated and wanted to be famous before her death..
This song in particular is really close to the death of Elizabeth Short "the black dalhia" i finally figured out the meaning.....
'cellar door' was found to be considered the most beautiful phrase in the entirebEnglish language.
you watched Donnie darko didnt yah :p
lol you know it
+AlphaSeries181 ❤
This song reminds me of Violet and Tate...
now that's all I can think of. never thought of it that way before but it's true
omg yes!!!! ahh the feels
Dying is your latest fashion is based on death, in all sorts of ways! Cellar door is about death, Not good enough for the truth in cliché is about death, Dragging dead bodies in blue bags up really long hills is about death even though it was on a different record it's in a way related to DIYLF, there's no sympathy for the dead, Reverse this curse talks about a funeral, Situations talks about a girl who rocks the style of dying, which means she must be dead to him! and she's rocking that style so very well! when I go out I want to go out on a chariot of fire talks about a girl who dies as well, this album was mainly about love, but Ronnie doesn't describe his love in the generic romantic way! he describes it through darkness and bitter pain so we can feel the inside of his heart and how its tearing up so we can see how much these situations really meant to him. Cellar door is not meant to be taken literally, it's a made up story, all of his songs refer to death in a metaphorical way but any way, cellar door is about a girl, and his girl is a girl whom he loved so much and he was so in love with her but in this story she dies of an unknown reason, most likely a drug over dose, but he finds her and drags her body to the cellar, which is the darkest pace, (his heart) is the darkest place, which he talks about in "reverse this curse" (and to the girl, that filled my dark) well he lays her out on a canvas and kisses her, because he loved her, and now she's melting because despite the fact that he loved her she wasn't true, she was fake, full of lies and deceit, he also says he would scatter her in art forms, and admire her, he's being sarcastic, because he's also insulting her by calling her a whore which means she slept around and that means it broke his heart cause he loved her, and now the people who she slept with are starting to love her more! because they are a bunch of guys who got their hearts broken by her, and they love her better now that shes dead. her eyes in the glass means her face is in a portrait on the wall, for every body to see it free of charge, and if you watch Scooby doo, you've seen how villians always hide behind paintings and use other peoples faces as a mask to hide behind, well that's what he's referring to, not Scooby doo but by wearing her face as a mask. and the chorus is simply a basic way of saying that she's dead in a coffin awaiting her judgment by God, like the drug like the change in the pain,it goes on for so long, is just a metaphor for how long she will be down there, how long it takes to get the drug out of your system, to get rid of the addiction, and how long it takes to get over the pain.
THE END.
because too many people misinterpret this song so bad.
alex medina I was getting a necrophilia feel from it lol
alex medina Omg wow! Your mind is beyond me. I fucking love it. & this song, album & Ronnie. ALWAYS!! ♡
Olivia Moungaloa This song is not about the Black Dahlia the Black Dahlia was cut in half and left in the park in L.A.
I always thought he was singing about making love with a dead ex-gf then buffalo billing her in his mind
Didnt know that thanks for explaination !!
