Closer

Now you’ve touched my fears with your own two hands,

When I say I’m scared, will you, understand?

I’ve never been closer to falling apart,

But I’ve never felt closer to somebody else’s heart.

 

Now you’ve the seen dark with your own two eyes,

Left the poison on your tongue, told you not to bite,

I’ve never been closer to the edge of the fall,

But I’ve never felt closer to being worth anything at all.

 

It must be something that you do,

Makes it so easy to fall right into you,

You must be something unheard of something true,

Cause I find it so difficult to stop smiling at you.

 

Now you’ve tasted blood that’s still in my mouth,

Now I find it hard to think, breath without,

I’ve never felt farther from being alone,

But I’ve never felt farther from anything known.

 

Now you’ve cooled the cuts that still mark up my skin,

Underneath your bold actions, there’s a good, true intent.

I’ve never felt farther but anything sane,

But I’ve never felt farther from needing a hole in my brain.

 

It must be something that you do,

Makes it so easy to fall right into you,

You must be something unheard of something true,

Cause I find it so difficult to stop smiling at you.

 

It must be something that you do,

Makes it so easy to fall right into you,

You must be something unheard of something true,

Cause I find it so difficult to stop smiling at you.
