Are you gone?

Closer by Lacuna Coil

Want to get closer, in too deep
Where there is something I wish for I'll go through
Want to get closer into you
No hell to discover
I've got it all inside myself
Salvation you have preached is gone
No way, you can't turn it around

Looking for a higher ground
Searching for this something missed before
From a higher ground
Will I fall in a right direction?
(Higher, searching for more)

Falling apart
There's nothing real
That will convince me to change but I'll go through
Want to get closer into you
No hell to discover
There is just nothing to betray
Salvation you have preached is gone
No way, you can't turn it around

Looking for a higher ground
Searching for this something missed before

From a higher ground
Will I fall in a right direction?
(Higher, searching for more)

Looking for a higher ground
Searching for this something missed before
From a higher ground
Will I fall into your land?

Looking for a higher ground in the world of oxymoron, the ground is low and high is high, it just doesn’t work. Closer by Lacuna Coil, is a free verse full of her feeling about her dreams about not coming true, but it has no rhyme. It’s full of parallel structure “higher searching for more,” it just keeps you interested if it’s going to come up again. Moodiness is set from her unwillingness to find peace, she just believes the hyperbole of “salvation [that was] preached is gone,” since you can’t changes a persons preach. She wants the dream of her love to come true, and wants her imagination to be wrong by the themes of love and hate.
