Leave It Open

Leave the door open
When you walk through it
We are broken
Earlier we should've quit

You really should've listened
I told you my thoughts
My heart I stiffened 
Because you took cheap shots

Leave it open wide
I want to watch you leave
I've cried and cried
But this time I won't grieve

I want to make sure you're gone
I've nothing left to say to you
Hurry it's almost dawn
Leave before the sky turns blue

Leave it open please
This is wasting time, although
I don't want to feel the breeze
But I have to watch you go
