Open up the door
Open up the door
I can sense thy end is near
I know you hoped this would end in a different way
I see your face I know you are scared
You can hold on to my hand
I see those tears
Don’t think about the bad; don’t let your mind take you there
You got to hold on be strong now that I’m not here
Put away that rope you have to face yourself
I know you want to come but right now it’s not
time and that is not your light
I am lost looking for paradise
never thought I could get so high
should have prayed instead of played
I feel so numb all I wanted was
to live a happy life
I have successfully failed a total waste of life
still can’t sleep I keep having nightmares
that I am not in
Where do we go when we leave our bodies?
Where do you go when were not in this world anymore?
Who do we talk to when we crying on the outside
hurting on the inside
Who know the place where all our dreams become reality?
Who holds the map so the rest of us can follow him?
If anybody can hear me tell him the dreamer
is dreaming of paradise, paradise
Chorus:
Is it true what they say about the place your body can be held when you are there?
If you were blind now you can see
If you were deaf now you can here
You couldn’t walk you can run now
Is it true what they say about the place you can
Reconnect with your love ones when you are there?
If they had dead they come alive.
If they were lost now they are found.
You never met you can greet them now.

Chorus
Open up the door
Open up the door
I can sense the end is near
Imagine John was right there is no heaven.
But let’s make one thing clear if there
Is another life out there
You will meet me at our secret place
I am not going to say good bye
I’m going to say see you there
I know this is not the time but
Can I keep all the memories
I’m afraid I will forget how beautiful
Your smile is to me
And one more thing not to forget remember the love we shared
With the little time we had we were blessed
And I know I have never said this before
But I want you to know that I love you
There are so many questions to ask.
Like why now?
How come us?
And is there a list of who can come in?

Chorus

Where do we go when we leave our bodies?
How do we talk to when we crying on the outside
Hurting on the inside?
I know we did not do much on our bucket list
And those months I did you wrong and left without any reason
You still took me back never looked back I’m sorry thank you
And I want you to know I’m scared off death too
I kept running away convinced myself
It will never find me
So I hibernate like a bear stay away from my fears
But it haunts me death has got me death has found me
