Fate's Door

 
Listen
It could happen anywhere to anyone... A family - where the father is a doctor, the mother a psychiatrist - falls apart and splits in two. The mother remains alone while the father moves to an unknown location with their son. Years pass. The mother searches relentlessly for her lost son, but to no avail... However, one day, she receives notification: both her husband and son have been found. She frantically races across town to find that she must identify her husband's body. But her son is alive. He is deeply withdrawn into himself, showing signs of apathy... He speaks quietly, almost unnoticeably, about incoherent topics, as if unaware of the world around... His mother, who hasn't seen him for such a long time, merely hears a few meaningless sentences from her son in this cold unfriendly house full of hideous medical implements...

Rain pelts down all over the city
Tearing down its merciless streets…
A woman desperate for some answers
The empty years and wretched blues…

Passed with some recent news
But the fear of the unknown still stalks her mind

There’s a house way down the road – and fate’s door
It’s a house – not a home – Death awaits – on its own
There’s nothing more…
Just a half dead kid and his father’s corpse

The boy was tortured here
The evidence all makes that clear
Mommy kneels n’
holds him terribly near

Every question needs a word – for comfort
December’s door’s ajar – and it’s the only path
The rhythm of the past – won’t get you very far
December’s door’s ajar – no light shines in it’s path
It’s increasingly harsh – and increasingly daft
While the door is still ajar – I’m frightened!!

You saved me
from my worst nightmare
Save me from myself!!!
