There Was a Door

[Verse 1]

Slipping through the elevator doors, well aware

That— that— that the man could be already there

Will he look? Must I always come and go in distress?

I forget I can't escape behind the shape of my chest

And as a matter of fact

Either way I serve it, I am bound to a trap

Of two determined landscapes so I'm bound to attack like a river

Reflect, disconnect, deliver

[Chorus]

All I've wanted for the place I live

Is the same for this vessel I'm in

A body of water, whole, alone, and free

Feeling nothing, it will pool inside of me

[Post-Chorus]

Resting my hands after I fought

To resurrect what I forgot

New hands appeared before my eyes

To move the dirt again

[Refrain]

I just keep coming out to myself

I just keep coming out to myself, it just keeps coming

I just keep coming out to myself

I just keep coming out to myself, it just keeps coming

I just keep coming out to myself

I just keep coming out to myself, it just keeps coming

I just keep coming out to myself

I just keep coming out to myself, it just keeps coming

How suddenly there was a door

[Verse 2]

Now, when I look in the mirror

It's not as hard to tell myself the good things that I want to hear

But the problem slips from foul lips

And the misunderstanding of an ownership

Family doesn't mean you can touch

And “just joking” is not a reason enough for me to

Not bite but be polite

And if you don't see it coming, then you better think twice

[Chorus]

All I've wanted for the place I live

Is respect for this vessel I'm in

A body of water, wild, immense, untamed

Teach me how to be unseen as something to claim

[Refrain]

Just when I thought I had run into a standstill

How suddenly there was a door

[Bridge]

(If you don't want it, you can reset it)

Here it comes, a current

Can you feel it rushing through

(If you don't want it, you can reset it)

Despite all its power, I've learned it's best

To shut my mouth and yet

(If you don't want it, you can reset it)

The pressure will come

Enough with exposition

(If you don't want it, you can reset it)

Get to the heart of it, no matter

What you started with

[Refrain]

I just keep coming out to myself

I just keep coming out to myself, it just keeps coming

I just keep coming out to myself

I just keep coming out to myself, it just keeps coming

I just keep coming out to myself

I just keep coming out to myself, it just keeps coming

I just keep coming out to myself

I just keep coming out to myself, it just keeps coming
