Knocklyon (Irish: Cnoc Lín) is a suburb of Dublin in Ireland. It is on the southwest of the city, and just north of the foothills of the Dublin Mountains.
The M50 motorway divides Knocklyon, with most of the suburb lying on the east of the motorway. Housing estates to the east include Idrone, Beverly, Dargle Wood, Delaford, Knockaire, Orlagh, Templeroan, and Woodfield. To the west of the M50 are estates such as Castlefield Manor, Glenlyon, Glenvara Park, and Woodstown. These are linked to the rest of Knocklyon by a footbridge and by Junction 12 of the motorway.
The population figure cannot be isolated from published census data as Knocklyon is composed of Firhouse-Knocklyon district electoral division (DED) (population 3,602 in 2011), plus unpublished fractions of Ballyboden DED (5,085), and Firhouse-Ballycullen DED (7,773).
The area is in the Dublin South Dáil Éireann constituency, and in the Rathfarnham local electoral area for county council elections.
The door is closed on my dreams!
And it wont open for me!
I feel like I need to scream!
I feel like no one cares about me!
I feel like I need to run!
I feel like I need to be alone!
But no one is letting me out!
No one is helping me out!
Instead everyone is locking the door, so I cant get out anymore!
No one understands how I feel!
No one understands what Im going threw!
No one understands anything about me!
No one understands!
No one, No one understands!
No one knows!
They may never know!
Chorus:
The closed door wont let me out,
The closed door is staying shut,
The closed door is not opening!
The closed door is what helps me from making a mistake!
Sha lala la la sha lala la la
Finally I think the door is opening,
I might be able to get out,
This place is getting old,
Im out it worked!
I kind of liked this place,
It was a way for me to get away!
Chorus:
But now I can see the world,
Now I can meet new people,
Now I can breathe fresh air!
