Beyond the Door - Hadley Fraser

All of my life everything’s worked like clockwork

In this place where time declines to flow

Never changing and always remaining

I’ve never questioned the way it should go

Then she comes here

Bringing nothing but questions

And I find all I can think of is her

And what lies beyond the door

Something calls me to know more

How this yearning inside grows

For the door I always close

What can there be besides what I know here?

There is no point to this untempered thought

Why search for truth when I may regret it?

I’ll cast doubts aside and I’ll do what I ought

Oh how I wish

I could return to the bliss that is ignorance

Why must there be uncertainty now?

Asking just what lies beyond the door

Nothing’s certain anymore

And though I must never know

As a chance the questions grow

Now I know why they warn us

Never take too long

For unwanted curiosity will catch on

And go on

Will I see beyond the door

Just one way to know for sure

I know doubts will leave me be

In the moment that I see

If I look through

Look beyond the door
