Not Even Close - Katie Herzig

I have a dream of living a life that’s easier said than done

Stare in the mirror I’m unfascinated with everything I have done

I’m faking my way, living it down

Oh my God I’m lazy and I’m frenzied

Licking my wounds, and moving ahead

But I can’t take this wine and bread

I’m not even close to where I want to be

And all of the people, as small as we are

Are crying out with our hands

Feeding the poor, feasting on sunsets

Take it away my friend

All of the hands are having their way

Licking their palms for a taste of grace

I’m saving myself for all the moments that I’ll never have

I’m not even close to where I want to be

And all of the people, as small as we are

Climb out with our hands

I’m unfascinated as small as I am

Nothing else here is grand

So take me away, and move me ahead

So I can take a taste of wine and bread

I’m living it down, it’s all that I have

This is about the things I’ll have

Mercy

Cause I’m not even close to where I want to be

I’m unfascinated by everything else

And me
