Closing Doors

Months are fading on my skin

That's what happens when you fall

I fell deep and I didn't know

How to get out of it

Found myself in the depths

Listened to the walls and could hear my echo

Everything that stayed was me

Everything that stays is me

I keep closing open doors

Hope keeps creeping in

Like a dim light in the hall

I can't turn it off again

I keep closing open doors

Hope keeps creeping in

Like a dim light in the hall

I can't turn it off now

Speaking lies in the corridor

They sound so quiet when they leave for more

Choose to keep the door open

Till I can keep them under my bed

I don't want to give in

Yearn to kill what's in my head

See the writings on my wall

Imprisoned me for far too long

I keep closing open doors

Hope keeps creeping in

Like a dim light in the hall

I can't turn it off again

I keep closing open doors

Hope keeps creeping in

Like a dim light in the hall

I can't turn it off now

Turn it off now

Paint the image clear like gold

Try to draw the scenery

Everything is still in hope

Standing there, you look at me

You stroke the hair out of my face

Know me from the inside out

My lips are sealed, no need to speak

Let me fall into your warm hold

I keep closing open doors

Hope keeps creeping in

Like a dim light in the hall

I can't turn it off again

I keep closing open doors

Hope keeps creeping in

Like a dim light in the hall

I keep closing doors, leave them open, pull me in

Room is full of stars, setting on the shelves again

Walls keep closing in, break them down, let me back in

In between the lines, asking where the hell you've been?

Vision's blurred, tripped n' fell, scribbled lines, hypnotic spin

Nothing left for hope, know the truth, breathing in

Keep the light on, stay, make me sleep without it on

I lay on my bare back, make it short, turn it off
