Close the door
The Angelics Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Heading home, hittin 90 on the freeway, haven't been in so long
I should have known that she would cry I should have known that she would lie yeah she did me so wrong
I've lost my direction yeah I can't get no affection out of you
What do I do
I've been so lost in you

She close the door
Cause I've been drowned before
Let me swim ashore
I deserve more

I've been alone, you're running through my mind
So I just stay home and get stoned
I should have left you in September but I wanted remember how it was when it was good
You've lost your affection you won't look in my direction I haven't heard a word from you
What do I do
We've been getting out of tune

She close the door
I've been drowned before
Let me swim ashore
I deserve more

I can hear you calling me but
I don't see what you'd want
I just need some space to breathe
Some air into my lungs

She close the door
I've been drowned before




Let me swim ashore
I deserve more

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of The Angelics' song "Close the Door" depict a story of a troubled relationship that is filled with pain, betrayal, and lost love. The singer is heading home on the freeway, feeling a sense of distance and disconnection that has been present for a long time. They express regret and a realization that their partner has been dishonest and unfaithful, causing them to lose their way and feel a lack of affection. Despite feeling lost in this relationship, they still hold on to the hope of finding love and a sense of belonging.


The chorus emphasizes the singer's plea for their partner to "close the door" because they have experienced the pain and devastation of being "drowned before." They acknowledge the need to swim ashore and find themselves again, acknowledging that they deserve more from this relationship. This heartfelt plea is a desperate cry for closure and the desire to let go of the pain and negativity that has consumed their relationship.


In the second verse, the singer reflects on their loneliness and their constant thoughts of their partner, leading them to stay at home and numb their emotions through substance use. They regret not leaving the relationship earlier, but at the same time, yearn to remember the good times they once shared. The lack of affection and communication from their partner has caused them to feel out of sync, as if they are no longer on the same wavelength.


The bridge of the song reveals the singer's struggle to understand their partner's motives and desires. They hear their partner calling them, but they fail to see why their partner would want them back after everything that has happened. The singer simply craves some space and freedom to breathe, hoping to bring life back into their own existence.


Overall, "Close the Door" is a poignant reflection on a broken relationship, expressing emotions of pain, longing, and the search for closure. It serves as a reminder that everyone deserves more from a relationship and sometimes, it is necessary to let go in order to find happiness and inner peace.

Black Swan

На нашей такой большой голубой планете,
Одной из многих во Вселенной,
Пусть моя маленькая любовь найдёт
Тебя на твоём маленьком острове.
Мы встречаемся, и проходит время.
Писем про наши чувства становится больше.
И их отзвук мы слышим друг в друге,
Иногда яростно, а иногда печально.
Звуки разносятся далеко за горизонт,
И добрые песни меняют мир.
Видишь? Чем дороже для тебя человек, тем он ближе к тебе.
Пусть звучит песня о любви!
Я хочу, чтобы её услышал только ты.
Ты видишь?
Ты видишь?
Ты видишь?
Пусть звучит песня о любви!
