I wake up every morning, feeling like a heavyweight

Carrying the burden of my dreams, I wonder if it's too late

I see everyone around me, shining bright without remorse

While I'm stuck in the shadows, feeling like I missed my course

Oh

I feel like a failure, lost in the crowd

I scream out in silence, but there's no sound

A lifetime of striving, with nothing to show

I'm drowning in the echoes of what I'll never know

I see their eyes upon me, expecting me to rise

But I'm shackled to my doubts, and it's no surprise

I've stumbled and I've fallen, a thousand times before

And now I'm standing here, feeling like I've closed the door (door)

(Closed the door)

(Oh)

(Closed the door)

In the depths of this despair, I see a flicker of light

A spark of hope reminding me, it's okay not to be alright

Should I take these shattered pieces, and build something new

If failure's just a moment, is it all that I am due

Shall I'll rise from the ashes, and embrace the unknown

For in the face of failure, if my true strength is shown

Should I chart a new direction, with courage as my guide

And find the grace in failure, where my spirit won't hide

But it always hides

But it always hides

But it always hides

(Close the door) But it always hides

(Close the door)
