So Close/So Far

I'm reaching, I'm reachin
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

You had my heart inside a cage from the very first day
Grabbed the key, threw it away, and that's just always where it's stayed
In that locket in your pocket
Even though you went and tossed it
On those nights you went and lost it
When we fighting, we cant stop it
When we bargaining to drop it
Like a court case on the docket
We just out here tryin to not get
Prosecuted for our crimes
Even though I make you cry
And I bottle it inside
You still talk to other guys
And I always wonder why
This aint good enough for you
Cuz even though you say you true
Your phone be buzzin out the blue
Early mornings right 'round 2
And then we right back in this loop
Where I blame you blame me, too
It's like there's nothin we can do
Because our souls they both been bruised

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

It's like we make all kinds of progress
Sit and wonder how to top this
It's like no one but us can stop us
Then we take the ball and drop it
It's impossible to not get
Frustrated with the pattern
All these years and we still at it
If I'm Mars you must be Saturn
Cuz we live on different planets
Second chances yeah I'll grab it
Cuz this love we know its lastin
But that also means we crashin
And we burnin it all down
Got some scores to settle now
Got some weapons pull them out
Watch the words comin out my mouth
And they can maim you just the same
Full on hits you ain't just grazed
You say you wanna take my name
But then you go and you just claim
That you ain't so sure about it
See a future but you doubt it
If we could get up out this pattern
We could live happily ever after

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
