Close The Door Lyrics by Beth Crowley

2018

[Verse 1]
I always heard about how cruel the world could be
Guess I had to see it for myself
Got too swept up in false ideas of destiny
Time to put this dream back on the shelf
But how do you reconcile what you feel with what you know?
How do you force the heart to simply let it go?
[Chorus 1]
You take a step back, you take a breath in
Silently make your peace with having to start again
Capture this moment in your mind
Do your best not to cry as you say goodbye
And you close the door
[Verse 2]
A curtain falls upon an empty darkened stage
No one to see my final bow
I walk the streets, the people seem to be the same
Yet everything has changed somehow
They told you not to mistake what you want for what you need
Don't let them watch you deflate when it turns out life agreed
[Chorus 2]
Put on a brave face
Mask the shame inside so nobody else can see
Ignore the murmurings of all the "I told you so's"
That's just how it goes
When you close the door
[Verse 3]
And I don't know what made me think I was different from the millions of dreamers who share this yearning
My life's not over and I'll find ways to move on
Can't be stuck in this moment while the world keeps on turning
Please don't leave me behind
Please don't leave me behind
