Cold Door
Minimalist Piano Ballad
(Intro : Slow, low piano opening) Verse 1 The door is cold No key to hold Your name is worn On wood so torn Chorus The room is dark No light to spark I sit on stone Alone at home Verse 2 Your coat is there But you're not here The chair is bare No one to care Chorus The room is dark No light to spark I sit on stone Alone at home Bridge The floor is cold My heart is old No sound at all Just silence tall (Outro : Piano holds low note as vocal fades to deepest register) Door stays closed No one knows Cold and slow All I know
