My latest tune. This one took time, the lyrics took a long time to come to me. I hope you enjoy my song!
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I found a door where the road ran out
Past the last light, past any doubt
A man in the window waved me in
Said the room was waiting, said it always been
The walls looked kind in the candle glow
I told myself I'd stay an hour or so
The floorboards creaked like they knew my name
Every step further felt just the same
[Verse 2]
The clock on the wall was stuck at nine
Every face in the hallway looked like mine
I asked for the road, they smiled and said
There's no road out, just the room ahead
I laughed it off, I called it a joke
Then I noticed I'd forgotten how to leave, how I spoke
The candles never burned down to the wick
The hours moved but the night stayed thick
[Pre-Chorus]
Something's wrong here
Something's wrong
I can feel the walls
Singing me along
[Chorus]
I CAN'T FIND THE DOOR I CAME IN THROUGH
EVERY HALLWAY LOOKS THE SAME TO ME AND YOU
THE ROOM KEEPS GROWING, THE WALLS KEEP CLOSING IN
I'M STILL HERE SINGING, STILL TRAPPED WITHIN
THIS IS THE PLACE THAT SWALLOWS MEN
[Verse 3]
I started talking to the men in the frames
They all had my face, they all knew my name
I begged the man at the desk for the key
He said son you already are what you'll always be
The mirrors multiply the longer I stay
I forget which reflection I walked in that day
I used to know the sound of my own voice
Now every echo answers like it had a choice
[Pre-Chorus]
Something's wrong here
Something's wrong
I can feel the walls
Singing me along
[Chorus]
I CAN'T FIND THE DOOR I CAME IN THROUGH
EVERY HALLWAY LOOKS THE SAME TO ME AND YOU
THE ROOM KEEPS GROWING, THE WALLS KEEP CLOSING IN
I'M STILL HERE SINGING, STILL TRAPPED WITHIN
THIS IS THE PLACE THAT SWALLOWS MEN
[Bridge]
Maybe I built this room myself
Maybe the walls were always me
Maybe there never was a door
Maybe I never wanted to leave
Maybe every guest before me
Asked the same question, stayed to see
[Verse 4]
I stopped counting the days I've stayed
Stopped asking the man behind the desk
Every hallway leads me back to this room
Every mirror gives the same answer, no rest
The candle's still burning, the door's still gone
I don't remember which one of us is wrong
[Final Chorus]
I CAN'T FIND THE DOOR I CAME IN THROUGH
EVERY HALLWAY LOOKS THE SAME TO ME AND YOU
THE ROOM KEEPS GROWING, THE WALLS KEEP CLOSING IN
I'M STILL HERE SINGING, STILL TRAPPED WITHIN
THIS IS THE PLACE, THIS IS THE PLACE
THIS IS THE PLACE THAT SWALLOWS MEN
[Outro]
I found a door where the road ran out
I'm still inside it
I never got out
I never got out
My latest tune. This one took time, the lyrics took a long time to come to me. I hope you enjoy my song!
