When your heart control you it strangles up your mind There's a haze above you and glaze over your eyes It's the place you flee to when you want to run and hide Sit by yourself, losing track of time Emily, won't you let me in? Unlock the door, maybe I can be your friend All those years of heartache would've turned me into stone I can see why you might wanna be left on your own Maybe when you're older it won't cut you like a knife But it's not my place to tell you how to live your life Emily, won't you let me in? Unlock the door, maybe I can be your friend Yours is a leaf worth turning over But I'm not trying to be your lover Just another shoulder to cry on Emily, won't you let me in? Unlock the door, maybe I can be your friend Oh Emily, won't you let me in? Put down your gun, don't you let this be the end
