The key and the doppelganger

(Verse 1)

I searched my pockets, searched the floor,

Turned the table, slammed the door.

Where’s the key? Where did it go?

Locked inside and I don’t know.

(Verse 2)

Then I saw him standing there,

Same face, same eyes, same messy hair.

He smiled and held it in his hand,

Like a secret, like a plan.

(Chorus)

He said, "This is a dream, don’t you see?

The key unlocks your destiny.

But find the door before you wake,

Or this dream is yours to take."

(Verse 3)

I reached out, but he pulled away,

Laughing soft, like shadows play.

"The door is near, but hard to find,

Look beyond the walls of mind."

(Bridge)

I ran through halls of silver light,

Endless doors, left and right.

One was open, one was true—

But which to choose? I never knew.

(Final Chorus)

He said, "This is a dream, don’t you see?

The key unlocks your destiny.

But choose too late, and here you'll stay,

A ghost of dreams that fade away."

(Outro)

Then I woke up, gasping deep,

Key in hand, but was it real?

The door still lingers in my mind—

Somewhere waiting, lost in time.
