It’s just the room across the hallway,
Piled high with junk
And faraway thoughts,
Empty isolation
And forgotten retorts.
It’s just the room across the hallway,
It used to be hers
But then she went away,
No matter how hard
I’d beg and pray.
It’s just the room across the hallway,
I refuse to go in
Because ghosts of the past
Remind me of how life
Can never last.
It’s just the room across the hallway,
Damp up the walls,
We don’t talk about her,
Because it hurts more
To remember.
I’d rather just forget
And lose all the happy thoughts,
As well as all the regret
Of that room across the hallway.
