Open Door

 

Lyrics

I’m worryin’ ‘bout things not going well

Wakin’ up each day in this living hell

Wanna stop the endless loop that’s running through my mind,

Why am I so unkind……to me?

Why build a prison then sit inside?

Why stay when the door’s open wide?

Oh, why am I doing this to me?

Oh, why stay when I have the key?

Which one of these voices Is it safe to hear?              

Which of them is really me and which of them is fear?

Let me look around to see the truth of what I know,

Then I can let go

Why build a prison then sit inside?

Why stay when the door’s open wide?

Oh why am I doing this to me?

Oh, why stay when I have the key?

I must empty out my mind

Leave worry far behind

Thought worry would save my life

But it only brings more strife…to me

So, why build a prison then sit inside?

Why stay when the door’s open wide?

Oh, why do I keep doing this to me?

Oh, why stay when I have the key?

Well, I’m leavin’

‘Cos I am the key
