Cages of Glass

I can see you, the view is clear
But I can't touch you anymore in this time of fear
So I'll just wave, and hope you'll save
A simple thought of me for another day

I got close, and closer
Until I had to hide, hide inside
A closed closet, but I'll wait right here beside
I'll wait

I walk beside you, for now that's all I can do
The sun doesn't care, its light finds the way to you
I see the sparkles inside and out those crystal walls
That I hate, I can't wait to see them fall
I don't know how long it's gonna take 'til I can reach for you
I'm only trying to be patient cause I have to
But all I want's for you to get out of there fast
I can't wait, I can't wait
To break these cages of glass

It's a time of war but the view seems clear
We face a threat without a face but I don't fear
Panic on the streets, when will it find defeat?
Soon I hope, I can't wait for us to touch again for real

To get close, and closer
But now we have to live, live inside
Our own transparent box
Can't find the key to the locks
But I'll wait

I walk beside you, for now that's all I can do
The sun doesn't care, its light finds the way to you
I see sparkles inside and out those crystal walls
That the I hate, I can't wait to see them fall
I don't know how long it's gonna take 'til I can reach for you
I'm only trying to be patient cause I have to
But all I want's for you to get out of there fast
I can't wait, I can't wait
To break these cages of glass

You're trapped in a cage of glass
But sometimes it seems like a mirror
And if it breaks will there be misery
Or an era of peace?
I just can't be inside here anymore
Watching both of us freeze

I walked beside you, and I am still on your side
We breathe the same air again, no longer needing to hide
I saw sparkles I thought was from the crystal walls
But you still shine with them gone
I don't know how long it's gonna last out here in the blue
I'm only trying to be hopeful cause I have to
But I guess now it's all just a fragment of our past
Cause we really did break those cages of glass
