That Door

Six days into the semester You invaded my dreams Thought this would be easy Stroll through my days like a zombie We Facetime at night But your voice can’t touch me Always around, going downtown Getting drinks and holding my hand Maybe back to my place, save face We could go to yours instead But we closed that door It can’t be like it was before Six weeks into the semester I forgot your perfume Thought this would be easy I don’t smell you on my pillow No connection on zoom But your face still haunts me Always around, going downtown Getting drinks and holding my hand Maybe back to my place, save face We could go to yours instead But we closed that door It can’t be like it was before We used to Harmonize through Every song we wrote together Now I’m solo A capella Every single note Sustained for too long Six months since I stood before you Just within arms’ reach Thought this would be easy Refresh my texts like a madman Hope you’re getting them each I trust you completely Never around, letting me down Getting drunk and losing my head Stumble back to my place, plant face Wake up in an empty bed Cos I closed that door I won’t wait for you anymore I can’t wait for you anymore
