Outside the Gate

Your love is like a paradise, I'm stuck outside the gate
The opening is ever wide but, I can't fit through with my bags

I'm simply asking, is it better or worse
To act like I'm worth it, until it comes true
I'm simply asking, does it pass by
Will loving feel this hard for the rest of my life

I think I'm broken, might've got it backwards
When I was programmed, they might've missed a pattern
Cause you're here and you're perfect, and I want this to happen
But I just feel so lonely and on a different planet

I think I'm broken
I think I'm broken

Your love is like a cityscape but I grew up in gold fields
Your shadows taking over me but I think I like how it feels
I'm simply thinking about my whole
How I hadn't met myself until that night
I'm simply thinking of all that's passed by
Cause I've been too scared to live my life

I think I'm broken, might've got it backwards
When I was programmed, they might've missed a pattern
Cause you're here and you're perfect, and I want this to happen
But I just feel so lonely and on a different planet

I pulled some strings till I could finally take it
Lived half a lie, I did my share of faking
I can't avoid it comes out in the spaces
It's begging to be found

I think I'm broken, might've got it backwards
When I was programmed, they might've missed a pattern
Cause you're here and you're perfect, and I want this to happen
But I just feel so lonely and on a different planet

I think I'm broken
I think I'm broken
I think I'm broken
I think I'm broken
