Doorless Cage
Lyrics
Verse 1
What is life, baby
if I can't touch your name?
What is breath
if it burns the same?
I wear this heart
like a thin silk dress
It slips right through me
when I need you most, I guess
Pre-Chorus
What is to live
with my hands tied close?
A room full of color
and I want you most
What is freedom
with my mouth still dry?
I can see the door
but I still don't fly
Chorus
What is life without your love?
What is life without your love?
A doorless cage, a velvet glove
What is life without your love?
What is life without your love?
I can see forever above
But I still ache, I still want more
What is life if love's not yours?
Verse 2
You move like heat
through a locked-up room
And every little "maybe"
makes my chest bloom
I try to be calm
I try to be kind
But my body keeps calling
what my mouth can’t find
Pre-Chorus
What is to live
if I watch you go?
A vivid soul
through a window glow
What is freedom
if it leaves me here?
Close enough to pray
but never near
Chorus
What is life without your love?
What is life without your love?
A doorless cage, a velvet glove
What is life without your love?
What is life without your love?
I can see forever above
But I still ache, I still want more
What is life if love's not yours?
Bridge
If I had one wish
I'd spend it slow
I'd open every lock
and let it show
Not just the sky
not just relief
I want your kiss
to set me free
Chorus
What is life without your love?
What is life without your love?
A doorless cage, a velvet glove
What is life without your love?
What is life without your love?
I can see forever above
If freedom comes, let love come too
What is life if it can't reach you?
