I'm closing the door on the life I have lived,

It was never my life at all.

I've never known whom it belonged to,

I never asked to learn

I'm throwing away the key to somebody else's life,

Somebody else's hopes and dreams,

Somebody else's love.

I dreamt my life, my walk, my love,

I dreamt of a long journey far from here.

But now I awake, and I realize

That I've never even risen from bed.

But now I rise, and I wash myself,

Forgetting the dreams of my night.

I don't remember where I had walked;

It wasn't me at all.

I see breaking dawn through the window,

The new day has hardly begun.

But I've locked the door on the life I have lived,

To never go back,

To never look back,

To never remember the love, the tears.
