clear the gateway

I marked my place on the door
except no name, no paint, no pictures on the wall
I thought I could hear your voices across the hall
and It almost felt like i was again home

I can't see too far in the dark  
You said we're friends but why they laugh so hard
how quickly you shut the door and ran away
with no name, no face, no words to say

You clear the gateway for me
to leave a step and away
You choose to leave me behind
how you dare me to stay

You clear the gateway for me
to leave a step and away
Tormented me now and forever more
backward and forth each day

I marked my place on the door
with fears that spread
