So Close (Yet So Far)

You put my heart in a cage
I'm not walking away
We're so close
Yet so far
I'm reaching out to your hands
Only you understand
We're so close
Yet so far

I feel so trapped
In my mind
Am I cursed
Am I blind
If I burst
And I crime
Will my family cry
When they see me behind
Trapped in a prison
Dear god, do you listen
'Cause it's you who I'm missing
Yet I don't quite believe
You exist
'Cause the devil deceives
So it seems
Since a kid
I've been struggling
In this business
Feel defenseless
Hopping fences
It's so senseless
Shit, for instance
I'm so anxious
And I deal with these demons
Since a semen
I am screaming
And I'm fiending
For a way to be released
Dear god, if you exist
I don't want any money
Can't you see
I just want you to come
And set me free
From this prison
'Cause it's deep
Do you listen?
I'm not dissing
I'm suspicious
And I miss my former self
When I used to pray to you
And you used to talk to me
But now I feel alone
On my own
With no home

You put my heart in a cage
I'm not walking away
We're so close
Yet so far
I'm reaching out to your hands
Only you understand
We're so close
Yet so far

Everyday masquerade
Should I kneel should I pray
'Cause I feel like a slave
Made of steel are these chains
And I'd kill just to break
But for real I just crave
For the opportunity
To feel alive again
'Cause this pain that I feel
Is making me insane
Got me ready with the pistol
And I'm itching to come get you
But the issue
Deep inside
Is truly 'cause I miss you
Dear, god, please forgive me
'Cause I don't believe in you
I don't want you to go leave
Even though I left you
If you ever have it in you
Come take the rest of me
'Cause I'm rotting deep inside
Since no longer by my side
I'm no longer on my knees
With this little bit of faith
I'll just place it on myself
And that's reality
At least it is for me
'Cause once upon a time
You used to be so close
But now you feel so far
All that's left in my soul
Is the deep cemented scar

You put my heart in a cage
I'm not walking away
We're so close
Yet so far
I'm reaching out to your hands
Only you understand
We're so close
Yet so far
