"Closet" lyrics - JULIA MICHAELS

Lock the door, me in the closet
Picture of you in my pocket
It's all I really have left of you
And it's not enough to keep me goin'
This emptiness is always showin'
But it's all I really have left of you

[Chorus:]
But I don't understand why it has to be this way, nooo
I'm reaching for the door
But it's just too hard on me, oooh
And I don't understand why it has to be this way
So come back home, mmm

Lock the door, me in the closet
Tears are shootin' out like rockets
Cold and dark, twisted solitude
I see memories through my fingers
Now you and I, just like strangers
So what part of me is part of you? Oooh

[Chorus:]
And I don't understand why it has to be this way, nooo
I'm reaching for the door
But it's just too hard on me, oooh
And I don't understand why it has to be this way
So come back home

[Bridge:]
And how can I breathe
When there's no air comin' through
And what do I have
When there's nothing left to do...

[Chorus:]
I don't understand why it has to be this way, nooo
I'm reaching for the door
But it's just too hard on me, oooh
And I don't understand why it has to be this way
So come back home
So come back
