Close That Door
I write this song in pencil although in truth I know it's all in pen
Cause everywhere I'm going is just a map of the places that I've been
And I can rub out all the wrong words but they still leave impressions on the page
So I'm stuck a broken typewriter scared to write a word I can't erase
But I can't close that door
(Leave 'em all open)
What am I going towards?
(What am I hoping for?)
And do I dream no more?
(A dreamer's always sleeping)
What am I living for?
(If I'm not living for everything)
Oh I'm a maximizer
I'm a jack and a queen of all trades
I like to keep my hands full like to count my cards before I play
And I'll never stop moving no I just can't make my feet stand still
They say some are born to ramble I say
Where there's a way well there's a will
And I can't close that door
(Leave 'em all open)
What am I going towards?
(What am I hoping for?)
And do I dream no more?
(A dreamer's always sleeping)
What am I living for?
(If I'm not living for everything)
And if I can't say no
Will I ever say yes
And If I can't let go
Will I ever progress
And I won't let it show
But I'm scared to death
Oh I can't go no more
I don't know what's next
And if I can't say no (But I can't close that door)
Will I ever say yes (Leave 'em all open)
And if I can't let go (What am I going towards?)
Will I ever progress (What am I hoping for?)
And I won't let it show (And do I dream no more?)
But I'm scared to death (A dreamer's always sleeping)
Oh I can't go no more (What am I living for?)
I don't know
Let it show that I'm scared to death
Oh I can't go no more
I don't know what's next
Cause everywhere I'm going is just a map of the places that I've been
And I can rub out all the wrong words but they still leave impressions on the page
So I'm stuck a broken typewriter scared to write a word I can't erase
But I can't close that door
(Leave 'em all open)
What am I going towards?
(What am I hoping for?)
And do I dream no more?
(A dreamer's always sleeping)
What am I living for?
(If I'm not living for everything)
Oh I'm a maximizer
I'm a jack and a queen of all trades
I like to keep my hands full like to count my cards before I play
And I'll never stop moving no I just can't make my feet stand still
They say some are born to ramble I say
Where there's a way well there's a will
And I can't close that door
(Leave 'em all open)
What am I going towards?
(What am I hoping for?)
And do I dream no more?
(A dreamer's always sleeping)
What am I living for?
(If I'm not living for everything)
And if I can't say no
Will I ever say yes
And If I can't let go
Will I ever progress
And I won't let it show
But I'm scared to death
Oh I can't go no more
I don't know what's next
And if I can't say no (But I can't close that door)
Will I ever say yes (Leave 'em all open)
And if I can't let go (What am I going towards?)
Will I ever progress (What am I hoping for?)
And I won't let it show (And do I dream no more?)
But I'm scared to death (A dreamer's always sleeping)
Oh I can't go no more (What am I living for?)
I don't know
Let it show that I'm scared to death
Oh I can't go no more
I don't know what's next
