So close

And I can't believe that I'm back here again, Stuck in between having it all and nothing, I can taste the joy but don't feel it in my heart, I can see the light but I'm captured by the dark, I see the man that I really want to be, But he's standing there waving back at me, And he's touching all the things I wanna touch, And I'm jealous of myself I know that much, I'm a fish in a tank that's looking out at sea, But maybe that's all the world's got in store for me, I'm taunted by myself, my own prison walls, Perhaps someday I'll learn to let them fall
