So Close
Ólafur Arnalds feat. Arnor Dan Lyrics

Through dark and light I fight to be
Despite facing both positive and negative situations, I strive to achieve my goal of being close to you.

So close, shadows and lies mask you from me
Although I yearn to be near you, your deceptions and illusions prevent me from truly knowing who you are.

So close, bathe my skin the darkness within
My surroundings are dark and gloomy, but they seem to engulf and suffocate me instead of bringing comfort.

So close, the war of our lives no one can win
The ongoing battle between us is one that cannot have a victor, as both parties will ultimately lose something they hold dear.

The missing piece I yearn to find
There is an important aspect missing from my life that would make me feel complete.

So close, please clear the anguish from my mind
I request that you take away the pain and distress I am currently feeling.

So close, but when the truth of you comes clear
Although I want to know the real you, I am hesitant because I am uncertain of how I will react to the true nature of your being.

So close, I wish my life had never come here
This situation has caused such turmoil and chaos in my life that I sometimes wish I never found myself in it.

So close
The state of wanting to be physically and emotionally near to someone or something.
