All These Doors

by void.   Sep 24, 2005


Open the door
Switch on the light
Turn my back on the mirror
'Cause I don't want a fight.

Drowning in silence
Welcoming its safety
I ignore the contradictions
And I shout 'Maybe!'

Do you have some hope?
Keep it secure
Don't let me see
Without, I will remain demure

Spinning in place
No exit in sight
With all these doors
Can't turn a knob with all my might

And then I sleep
Pretend this long day
Has brought me down
Tomorrow I wake to the sun's new ray
Stolen hope in my eyes
The world has turned
Why not this life I know?
But I get only what I've earned.
