How many times can one restart Before they lose their beating heart? Is there a line where second chances Turn to ghosts in fractured glances? Each version built, then swept away, I ask, how much of me will stay? My future spreads, a boundless sea, Each wave a path calling to me I crave them all, each shining shore And my future stretches, vast and wide, A thousand doors on every side And oh, I ache to walk through them all Yet once I choose one to open, the rest refuse my call

A Thousand Doors
How many times can one restart Before they lose their beating heart? Is there a line where second chances Turn to ghosts in fractured glances? Each version built, then swept away, I ask, how much of me will stay? My future spreads, a boundless sea, Each wave a path calling to me I crave them all, each shining shore And my future stretches, vast and wide, A thousand doors on every side And oh, I ache to walk through them all Yet once I choose one to open, the rest refuse my call
