Touched but Never Held

unreachable you

did we ever have a chance
did you have honest intentions
or did i walk right into a pit

i gave all i had to give
and more after that

i touched you
but you could never be reached

it’s a twisted scheme
a wicked curse
what you want most
you push the plunger
and blow it all up

did i think we had it all
did i know i was runnin’ into hell

did you always know you were gonna hurt me
or did you hurt yourself

and you knew
all your shattered parts
isn’t the worst hell
just knowin’ you’ll never know love
‘cause you’ll never love yourself

you’ll be touched but never held
’cause when she gets close
you’ll override and hide
complete lockdown
a great heist
stealing the Hope diamond would be easier
than breakin’ through to you
