lyrics

The Door - Jen B. 4-10-09

I'm scared to sit in this quiet place
Against my will, my mind starts to race
Thinking of things that I ought to do
Anything but spend time with You

How strange that this has come to be
After all that You have done for me
Running from what, I am not sure
But I don't want to open that door

Don't be scared little girl
Its OK to cry
The feeling's not bigger than Me
It will not overcome you
Despite how it feels
I am here and I am not going to leave
Where you are, I can handle
We've been there together before
In the dark, so long buried
There needs to be light there once more.

A sunny smile day after day
Belies the storm that's about to rage
Pressure rising, strain clouds my face
I work harder and push it away

Don't be scared little girl
Its OK to cry
The feeling's not bigger than Me
It will not overcome you
Despite how it feels
I am here and I am not going to leave
Where you are, I can handle
We've been there together before
In the dark, so unnerving
There needs to be light there once more.

Uncapped feelings,
Deeply felt
For the first time
Overwhelmed
Pain and Terror
Rage and Hell
Trapped from a time long ago

Frozen feelings
Not my own
So long hidden
Not forgone
For survival
They aren't known
Concealed to keep the peace

Don't be scared little girl
Its OK to cry
The feeling's not bigger than Me
It will not overcome you
Despite how it feels
I am here and I am not going to leave
Where you are, I can handle
We've been there together before
In the dark, so long buried
There needs to be light there once more.
Its time to open the door.
I can open the door
Let me open the door
