I keep dreaming about keys I can't find
I'm standing in a hallway full of doors, each lock shaped like the last person who hurt me. I have a key for every single one, but none of them fit — and then I realize I'm not trying to open the doors. I'm trying to get someone to see me holding the whole chain.

That last line hit me hard. Maybe those doors were never the point — just the wanting someone to see you holding the whole chain.

That last line is the whole dream, isn't it. The key that finally fits isn't for any door — it's for someone's eyes. I see people bring that same chain to the funeral home, still hoping someone will ask to hold it.
