Lyrics

I waited by the doorway
but the door stayed closed.
Bare feet on a cold floor,
just echoes under my skin.
I traced the lines of memories,
not sure where they’ve ever been.
The hallway felt much longer
than the years we left behind.
And every answer you never gave
still lingers in my mind.
The door stayed closed,
and I stayed on this side.
I ain’t asking where you’re heading,
’cause truth is something you can’t hide.
The door stayed closed,
and my heart stayed open wide.
Your shadow slipped beneath it,
like a breath you never owned.
Silence pressed against the wood,
and my name turned into stone.
I knocked with hopes too fragile,
with a voice too tired to try,
and every “maybe someday”
felt like one more quiet lie.
The door stayed closed,
and I stayed on this side.
I ain’t asking where you’re heading
’cause truth is something you can’t hide.
The door stayed closed,
and my heart stayed open wide.
Some doors don’t slam
they just never open.
And the hardest goodbyes
are the ones that ain’t spoken.
So I stood here,
with my hope unbroken.
The door stayed closed,
and I stayed on this side.
I ain’t asking where you’re heading,
no more truths to run or hide.
The door stayed closed.
but my soul walked outside.
I waited by the doorway,
but the door stayed closed.
