Locked Doors
Journey Through Uncertainty: Gatlin Elms' Locked Doors
Lyrics
I've got a long way to go but I don't know
I have a significant journey ahead, but uncertainty exists.
If time will pass fast or pass slow no I don't
Uncertainty about whether time will feel fast or slow.
And between the lines I get lost on the inside
Difficulty understanding the deeper meaning; feeling lost internally.
But outside the lines there you are the whole time
Despite internal confusion, someone important is consistently present externally.
But I won't let it stop me from living no I won't
Determined not to let confusion hinder the experience of life.
Just please let me see for a minute where you are
Desire for a brief insight into the whereabouts or state of someone.
Where you are
Reiteration of the longing to know the other person's location or condition.
I walked through a door that was open and it locked
Entered a situation with an apparent opportunity, only to find it restricting.
And suddenly I started wishing I had not
Regretting the decision to enter, confronted with unfavorable circumstances.
In a room filled with painful decisions I was stuck
Facing a room full of difficult choices, feeling trapped.
In a room filled with terrible visions there I was
Encountering distressing mental images in the challenging situation.
But I won't let it stop me from living no I won't
Resolute not to let challenges impede the pursuit of life.
Just please let me see for a minute where you are
Requesting a brief insight into the current state or location of the other person.
Where you are
Reiteration of the desire to know where the other person is.
I peeked through a hole in the wall and I could see
Observing one's life from an external perspective through a hole in the metaphorical wall.
My life from beginning to end every scene
Seeing one's entire life, every moment, from start to finish.
And there you were standing beside me all the time
The significant presence of the other person throughout every aspect of life.
Every line, every door, every minute, all my life
Recognition of the other person's role in every part of life.
But I won't let it stop me from living no I won't
Determination not to let the external revelations hinder the experience of life.
Just please let me see for a minute where you are
Requesting a brief insight into the current state or location of the other person once again.
Where you are
Reiteration of the desire to know where the other person is.
But I've got a long way to go
Acknowledgment of the long journey ahead.
And I've got a long way to go
Reiteration of the acknowledgment of the long journey ahead.
