Facing my fears, my emotions run high,
Beyond that door I klnow that freedom awaits,
Whatever I find there I cannot deny
My deepest wish being that it's not too late.
Beyond that door I know freedom awaits,
As I turn that silver key I cannot complain.
My deepest wish being that it's not too late,
To face my demons and begin again.
As I turn that silver key I cannot complain
For once opened I discover salvation's gold.
To face my demons and begin again
Freedom of spirit in such joy it unfolds.
For once opened I discover salvation's gold
Whatever I find there I cannot deny,
Freedom of spirit in such joy it unfolds,
Facing my fears, my emotions run high.

Like the form, I've tried it and it's tricky. I do believe you have mastered it. The repetition emphasises the feelings you express so well. Thank you!
