If I'm not good
At least I'm persistent
A buried thorn
Where passion existed
If I'm not well
I've learned to fake it
A worn out mask
Breaks as you caress it
I just know I need you closer
I'll keep promising you the world
Each line draws you closer and closer
Like I have a million times before
And another million times to go
Closer and closer
If it's made up
At least it's convincing
I ate my words
To show I resisted
If it's a ruse
I've tried to expose it
But no one cares
So don't feel conflicted
Like I have a million times before
Closer and closer
And another million times to go
Closer and closer
I just know I need you closer
I'll keep promising you the world
Each line draws you closer
Like I have a million times before
Like I have a million times before
And another million times to go
Closer and closer
