So Close, Almost
Love's Puzzle: Unveiling the Heart's Missing Piece in 'So Close, Almost'
Lyrics
I went on many different dates
I've been on various dates with different people.
Trying to find the one for me
Seeking the right person for a relationship.
Trying to find the spark among the flames
Searching for a special connection amidst challenges.
And every time I spent the night
After spending nights together, something feels off.
Oh something just didn't feel right
An unsettling feeling during those nights.
And I feel like I'm the one to blame
Feeling responsible for the lack of connection.
'Cause it wouldn't matter if you were faultless
Even if the other person is faultless, it doesn't matter.
If I don't feel the butterflies it's hopeless
Without butterflies, the relationship feels hopeless.
There's just something missing, love
Sensing something missing in the experience of love.
And I just cant explain it
Unable to explain the void or emptiness felt.
But this picture of us
The envisioned relationship differs from reality.
Looks different to what I painted
Discrepancy between expectation and reality.
And I wanted to love you
Desire to love, despite internal conflicts.
That's what I hated the most
Struggling with the desire to love.
So close, almost
Falling short, almost reaching the desired connection.
I tried to take the pressure off
Attempt to reduce relationship pressure.
Didn't really do alot
Efforts to ease the burden, yet feeling dishonest.
Still feel like I'm lying to myself
An ongoing sense of self-deception.
And everything I said was truth
Previous statements were truthful, but something was missing.
I wanted to want more with you
Initially wanting more from the relationship.
But the more time that passed I could tell
Realizing over time that something is lacking.
That maybe I wasn't ready
Questioning readiness for a relationship.
Or maybe I'm just empty
Possibly feeling emotionally empty.
There's just something missing, love
Continued sense of something missing in love.
And I just can't explain it
Unable to articulate the void or emptiness.
But this picture of us
The imagined relationship doesn't match reality.
Looks different to what I painted
Discrepancy between the envisioned and actual relationship.
And I wanted to love you
Desire to love despite internal conflicts.
That's what I hated the most
Struggling with the desire to love.
We were so close, almost
Falling short, almost reaching the desired connection.
Oh there's something missing
Reiteration of a sense of something missing.
Oh there's something missing
Repetition emphasizing the absence of something.
Oh there's something missing
-Oh there's something missing
-There's just something missing, love
Continued feeling of a void in love.
And I just can't explain it
Unable to explain the void or emptiness felt.
I wanted to feel what you feel
Desire to experience the same emotions as the partner.
But my heart is saying
The heart is conflicted about what's missing.
What's missing, love
Difficulty explaining the emptiness in love.
No one can explain it
No one can provide a clear explanation.
But you'll feel enough
Despite the mystery, emotions will be enough.
You'll feel all the weight of the world
Embracing the weight of the world's emotions.
Fall off your shoulders
The burden will be lifted and carried home.
They'll take it and carry you home
A metaphorical portrayal of support and understanding.
And you will know
An assurance that understanding will come.
And you will know
An affirmation of eventual comprehension.
