Too close

Your doors are closed
The way to your heart is a dead end
Your heart's inside these walls
Banned from the outer world
Your fear is too big
You flee in what are just adventures
I walk this daily path
Looking for that feeling, you once had with me
But all I can find,
Are only illusions
Blown away
By the cold wind
of your closed heart

Captured in a grown body
Sits your frightened child soul
Of which you do not show a thing
And although you know
That I yearn for what I once loved
You are to dead to give in
Fear has a hold on you
It gets you by the throat
That I am still waiting for the one I know,
the only thing is left is your name
Surrounded by
A wall of deceit
Because of your closed heart
Did I push too much?
Did I get too close?
To the one you don't want to show?
Not to others, but certainly not to me
Not to others, but certainly not to me.

You cannot convince me
Of your rational decision

But where do I have to start,
when you express all feelings in this competition,
You are to absorbed with winning
Come to me, give me your hand
Put all the pride the shame,
the walls aside and surrender to faith,
Find the key; unlock the door
to your closed heart
