One day you asked
To be let into my world.
And I could see your face
Fall when I said no.
And I couldn't stop you
From walking away,
To leave me forever.
I wanted to let you in,
Open the doors and
Welcome you.
Because there's room
For one more,
One more.
But it's so dark here.
I had to save you.
You always smile,
How could I take that away from you?
You're always happy,
How could I take that away from you?
One day you asked
To be let into my world.
And I could see your face
Fall when I said no.
And I couldn't stop you
From walking away
To leave me forever.
I wanted to let you in.
Open the doors and
Welcome you,
Because there's room
For one more.
One more.
But it's dark.
So dark.
I couldn't let you in.
You're a light to me,
But you'd die here,
In my world.
You'd go out and
Never be able to come back
And light anything
Anymore.
One day you asked why
You couldn't go in.
I was saving you.
And you couldn't stop
Me from walking away to leave you forever.
And you didn't understand.
You still don't understand.
You just watched me
As I turned to leave you.
And though your hand
Shot out to stop me,
I just shook you off.
Never turning back to see the
Hurt clear on your face.
Now I don't see you.
Never see you.
And you don't see me,
Except in your dreams.
You look for me,
But you can't find me.
Once you asked yourself why
I didn't let you in.
But you knew the answer.
I couldn't let you in
Because I had to save you.
I had to save you to
Keep that smile on your face.
I had to save you to
Keep that happiness in your eyes.
You knew that I wanted
To let you in.
You knew I needed
To let you in.
You keep looking for me.
Looking for the person
That kept her depression
So she could keep forever
Your smile on your face.
So she could keep forever
Your eyes sparkling.
But you can't find her.
No one can.
Once you asked yourself how
You could let me leave you.
But you knew the answer.
You knew I couldn't drag you
Under all of this.
Under the depression,
Under the lies, and
Under the sadness
And tragedy.
So you knew I had to leave
And no one could save me.
Because I had left a long time
Ago.
