Every day I drive by the place

And behind the door is your face

To my disgrace

I want to stop and walk the feet

To the point where you and I meet

Open the door, run inside
Unseen by the outside

Cars drive on unaware

As I remain stopped and scared

I told you a lie

Because he made me say goodbye

Now the door is locked

and unheard is my pathetic knock

I ask myself why am I here?

Thought I was going to stay clear

But the last time I walked out the door

A part of me was left wanting more

To my horror I saw a glimpse of what could be

Leaving and coming home to you

For a moment I traveled an untraveled road

For a moment the thought of us glowed

Reality over takes the Fantasy

Have to force myself so the truth is what I see

My fear binds and bounds me up

Need to let go but I can't grow up

I can't help but think you'll do to me

What she wouldn't allow herself to see

I'm left in this place

In front of the door that hides your face

And to my disgrace

I turn around and walk away

I walk the feet that separate you and me

Get in the car and turn the key

Cars drive unaware of my fears

They can't see my silent tears

Unknown to them a heart lies broken

Torn apart by words unspoken

We drive on in a sea of lights

Cutting each other off to win the fight

Numb to each others thoughts

So the hatred rots

Like the fear it tangles itself up in our veins

When we're all gone the hatred still remains
