Opening the Door

[Intro] Moonlight on a dusty floor A door sighs open, shadows gently pour [Verse 1] Cracks hide old gray secrets here We sweep the night away, bring morning near There’s an opening, a pale line of day Where roaches fade when light finds its way [Chorus] They should take the cockroaches out through the opening and carry them away Let the open air lift them far beyond the doorway today We rise with the dawn, the room is clean and okay Home bright and quiet where the night used to stay [Verse 2] The corners breathe as the dust sinks slow We wipe the slate and start the glow The night retreats, the light leads the way Carrying cares out through the breaking day [Chorus] They should take the cockroaches out through the opening and carry them away Let the open air lift them far beyond the doorway today We rise with the dawn, the room is clean and okay Home bright and quiet where the night used to stay [Bridge] Let the breeze decide what stays behind We choose the light, we leave the dark behind [Chorus] They should take the cockroaches out through the opening and carry them away Let the open air lift them far beyond the doorway today We rise with the dawn, the room is clean and okay Home bright and quiet where the night used to stay [Outro] Room exhales, the morning hums along New daylight, a cleaner song
