I don't want to involve anyone unless they want it." On the other hand, Doors' guitarist Robby Krieger believed that Morrison indeed suffered "from an apparent Oedipus complex". When asked if whether the lyrics of the Oedipal section actually resonated with his own parents, Morrison defensively replied, "I don't want to talk about it. He wasn't saying he wanted to do that to his own mom and dad. He was giving voice in a rock 'n' roll setting to the Oedipus complex, at the time a widely discussed tendency in Freudian psychology. Ray Manzarek, the former keyboard player of the Doors, explained: Morrison had worked on a student production of Oedipus Rex at Florida State University. " (with the next words screamed out unintelligibly). That section of the song reaches a dramatic climax with the lines, "Father / Yes son? / I want to kill you / Mother, I want to. Shortly past the midpoint of the nearly 12-minute-long album version, the song enters a spoken word section with the words, "The killer awoke before dawn / he put his boots on". But people fear death even more than pain. That doesn't make it evil, though – or necessarily dangerous. Sometimes the pain is too much to examine, or even tolerate.

The song's guitar solo was ranked number 93 on Guitar World 's "100 Greatest Guitar Solos of All Time". "The End" was ranked at number 336 on 2010 Rolling Stone magazine 's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The Doors recorded a nearly 12-minute version for their self-titled debut album, which was released on January 4, 1967. Lead singer Jim Morrison initially wrote the lyrics about his break up with an old girlfriend, Mary Werbelow, but it evolved through months of performances at the Whisky a Go Go into a much longer song. " The End" is an epic song by the American rock band the Doors.
