Doors

LETRA

Doors

I grew up pretendin' sticks were little guns
I would point 'em at my dad, and he'd get mad
'Cause God forbid I hurt someone
I'd hurt anyone I could
Anyone who got too close, and anyone who wouldn't look
I was born into a one-hundred-year storm
Foot of ice across Vermont
And in that dark, and in that frost, a heart was formed
Malcontented and unwarm
You were unsuspectin', not unwarned

That I'm the trouble ahead, that I scream in my sleep
You put your money on red, I'm a sure bet at a losin' streak
I keep showin' you doors, but you can't open them up
'Cause it gets hardеr to see me the closer you try to look

I just livе here, babe, but you're the one who decided to knock
And you knocked

Have you ever stared directly at the sun?
Have you ever shared some closeness, so exposed
To have it spit back by someone?
So, forgive me if I jump
At the rattle of your keys
"Oh, are you leavin'?," "No, babe, I'm just wakin' up"
And now what?
I'm left starin' at the ceilin', listin' reasons you should pack all your shit up

Yeah, I'm the trouble ahead, and I scream in my sleep
You put your money on red, I'm a sure bet at a losin' streak
I keep showin' you doors, but you can't open them up
'Cause it gets harder to see me the closer you try to look

I just live here, babe, but you're the one who decided to knock
You knocked

I'll be gone so long before the anger comes
I'll be only what you've known of me 'til now
Oh, how I hope you're moving on

I'm the trouble ahead, and I scream in my sleep
You put your money on red, I'm a sure bet at a losin' streak
I keep showin' you doors, but you can't open them up
'Cause it gets harder to see me the closer you try to look

I just live here, babe, but you're the one
I just live here, babe, but you're the one
I just live here, babe, but you're the one
