The Door Teddy Swims

---

At first, I thought this song was by CeeLo Green, but it turned out to be someone else. It's my favorite song on Spotify right now, and I just listen to it on repeat over and over. 🎧 It just hits different, doesn't it?

In this life, have you ever felt stuck in a rut? 😣 Like you're constantly bumping against the same walls, going nowhere? Bak kata pepatah; kiri duri kanan pun berduri arah mana kemana hendak hamba melangkah? #lagu 🚧 Don't know, maybe you're in a relationship that's draining you, leaving you feeling empty and lost? 💔
Teddy Swims' song "The Door" perfectly captures that feeling. It's a raw, honest ode to self-love and the importance of breaking free from what's holding you back ain't it


The DoorSong by Teddy SwimsSongwriters: John Ryan / John Stephen Sudduth / Joshua Emanuel Coleman / Julian Collin Bunetta / Sherwyn Hewett Nicholls / Jaten Collin Dimsdale
I took a page out of your favorite bookYou sold me lies just by the way you lookTaught me a language that I never speakBaby, that ain't for meThat, that ain't for me
I dug my grave watching the way you moveYou took me higher than I ever flewToo many times, gave you a second chanceBaby, I'm just a manI'm, I'm just a man
No more thinking about you late nightNo more running around with your friends nowDone picking up pieces of my soul up off the floor
I said I would die for you, babyBut I can't take this pain no moreI thought I was willingBut tonight I save my life when I showed you the doorI don't want to lose you, babyBut I can't play this game no moreI thought it would kill meBut tonight I saved my life when I showed you the door
You never thought this day would ever comeBut I looked you in the eyes and pulled the rugYou tried to take away my sanityBaby, that ain't for meThat, that ain't for me
Oh, no more thinking about you late nightNo more running around with your friends nowDone picking up pieces of my soul from up the floor
I said I would die for you, babyBut I can't take this pain no moreI thought I was willingBut tonight I saved my life when I showed you the doorI don't want to lose you, babyBut I can't play this game no moreI thought it would kill meBut tonight I saved my life when I showed you the door
When I showed you the doorWhen I showed you the doorBut tonight I saved my life
I said I would die for you, babyBut I can't take this pain no moreI thought I was willingBut tonight I saved my life when I showed you the doorI don't want to lose you, baby (I don't want to lose you, baby)But I can't take this game no moreI thought it'd kill me (I thought it'd kill me)But tonight I saved my life when I showed you the door
Hmm-mm
Whoa-oh
Swims sings 🎶 about a toxic relationship that's slowly chipping away at his soul. He feels trapped, like he's lost himself in the chaos. 😵‍💫 But then, something shifts. He realizes he deserves better. He deserves to love himself, to prioritize his own happiness

And that's where the magic happens. ✨
Swims decides to walk away. He closes the door on that negative energy 🔋 and opens a new chapter – one filled with self-discovery and joy

Think about it. We often put others before ourselves. We prioritize the needs of our partners, our families, our friends, and forget about our own well-being. This can lead to resentment and burnout. 😭 We end up feeling drained, unhappy, and lost. 
But it doesn't have to be this way. 
So somehow this song; "The Door" is a powerful reminder that you have the power to choose happiness. You have the power to break free from anything that's holding you back

Here are a few things to ponder:What doors 🚪 do you need to close in your own life? What's stopping you from prioritizing your own happiness? 🚫What does self-love look like for you?This is more than just a song; it's a call to action. It's a reminder to listen to your heart, to trust your instincts 🧠 (or gut, whatever), and to never settle for less than you deserve

So, go ahead, unlock your inner glow. Open that door and step into a brighter future
