The World is Locked Behind That Door

The world is locked behind that door
A world that was unknown before
Mama cries in the middle of the night
Daddy wakes and turns on the light
Shadows dancing on the wall
Screams are coming from the hall
Anger makes us hate each other
And I don't remember that you're my brother
Mama's so scared she begs for death
We huddle around and wait for her last breath
If these walls could talk, I know what they'd say
They'd tell you of a better day
When life has defeated me, I will fall to the floor
And reach out for the world behind that door.
