jennifer grassman – bedroom door lyrics
the rain has come to texas again
and all the birds have ceased singing
but on its leave the sky will grow clear
and all of the church bells be ringing.
she lay so still
as it dripped from her wrist down her fingers
dew on the windowsill
and like dew, her spirit won’t linger.
dark thoughts, like ships, sailed across her mind
“what will mother do when she finds me?”
and in her hand the key to freedom,
“but what will freedom leave behind me?”
“what’s here for me but sorrow and pain,
and wondering why god designed me?
and yet, when i think only of me
i’m letting my sorrow define me.
“and when i think of what it would do to her
to know that i wasn’t brave enough to be there.”
in her mind she saw a line
of black umbrellas on a gray day
all the birds were silent and still
and all of the church bells were ringing.
she lay so still
as it fell from her hand to the floor
dew on the windowsill
and she got up and walked out the bedroom door.
i can see that you can see that
we are ships tossed on the ocean
i have been where you can never go
and i hope you don’t follow me…
