When the Door is Locked
They always say that when the door is locked
There's something more than meets the naked eye
For every time on that door I had knocked
I start to see what's on the other side
They always say a lock you cannot break
Even then who would dare to enter in?
What mortal key could the innocent make
To unlock a door bound by wicked sin?
But be aware the time has nearly come
For doors like these to collapse and crumble
The lives of those once robbed now numb
Their feet will run and no longer stumble
When the door is locked, listen to your gut
Muffled voices say "keep a locked door shut."

The lives of those once robbed now numb

Fairy.. truth.. you nailed this out of the park.. really dig this.. you bring the fire, a locked door sometimes needs to remain shut.. unless you're ready to confront the demons within.. much love, and respect..

Doors are meant to be opened.
Locks are only to keep out the honest.
