Lyrics

"Don't Come In"


Don't come in

cause you're a stranger

trying to pass yourself off as my,

as my neighbor.

See I've been down

for a long time.

Ain't nobody been here

to ease my mind.

But I'm blessed to know

the sun is going to keep on rising.

I'm blessed to know

I'm going to see it rise.


Don't come in

wearing that happy face.

It's just going to change its color.

It fades fast from cheers to gray.

See, I've been hurt before

by good intentions

walking through my door,

I had no clue what lay in store.

And yes, I know

I've got a lot of living left.

I've been missing out

but only cause I'm scared.


Don't come in.

You're gonna hurt me.

You won't love me.

You can't love me.

Don't come in.

You don't live here.

These are my tears

and they're only mine to give.

And yes, you should know

it's been a lonely road to home.

I'm blessed to know

I'm gonna be alright.


And yes, I know

I know how to survive.

I'm blessed to know

I'm gonna be alright.


Don't come in.

I know it's cold outside.

Though my fire's dwindling

I'm gonna be alright.

Don't look here.

You're just much too pretty.

I don't want to take the chance.

I'm gonna be alright.
