Straitjacket

I tried, I tried I tried to write down how I felt But the paper stayed empty Says it better than I could've myself I tried, I tried To write down all my dreams But the paper stayed empty Talk about irony And I'd die to feel your hand in mine Hold on to something one more time| I try but my hands are tied And it's got me feeling like I'm living in a straitjacket I wanna hold you but I can't I'm giving in to old habits Reaching for the past And I'm going kinda manic 'Cause in my head, I have it In my head, you're in my arms again And I can't, I can't I can't even walk my own house The empty chair in my kitchen I'll never have heart to throw it out And I can't, I can't Even talk to myself 'Cause it's just something missing You were the half of me that could've help I'd die to feel your hand in mine And hold on to something one more time And I try, but my hands are tied And it's got me feeling like And I'm living in a straitjacket I wanna hold you but I can't I'm giving in to old habits Reaching for the past And I'm going kinda manic 'Cause in my head, I have it In my head, you're in my arms again I'd die to feel your hand in mine Hold on for something one more time I try but my hands are tied And it's got me feeling like I'm living in a straitjacket I just wanna hold your hand Going crazy as the time passes I want it all again I want it all again And I'm living in a straitjacket Wanna hold you but I can't I'm giving in to old habits Reaching for the past And I'm going kinda manic 'Cause in my head, I have it In my head, you're in my arms again
