If you close your eyes
And think really hard
Maybe you can go
Somewhere else
Where everything is different
And nothing is real
With just a thought
You can change how you feel
Time has no meaning
You just float along
Tomorrow never comes
Today is all there is
Where everything is different
And nothing is real
You alone determine
Everything you feel

Once, when I was less
than what I am today
I let myself think
that it was just okay
The choices that were made
once, when I was clouded
and the wisdom I once had
was dark and shrouded
Down the path
to be deceived
my own version of the truth
I then believed
To almost lose it all
throw everything away
a decision based on lies
once, when I was less than what I am today

There are doors in life that should never be opened
and doors that you wish you had
there are doors that take you to the wrong places
and doors that only make you sad
There are doors in life that are unanswered questions
never having been explored
and doors that let you learn and grow
and those that leave you bored
There are doors in life you’re too scared to open
for fear that you will fail to walk through
and those that steal away pieces of your soul
in ways you never knew
There are doors that lead to both good and bad
and those that lead to nowhere at all
doors that change your life and those that make you pay
and then some are just a bathroom stall
