Near

I say the opposite thing, I want to be assured
I want to know that love is greater far than empty words
My cynicism many times irrational, absurd
Pride it tells me that I'm further gone than any word
I have the gall, yes I think I really have the nerve
To challenge unconditional love to be a verb
Many things I observe clash with what I heard
The black and white makes my insides grey, blurred

I am much less faithful than you think I am
My heart's palate tastes bitterness and loves bland
Need to water myself, 'cause I'm dry land
I want to know but I don't really want to understand...

But I've come to know one thing
To be alone, it could be my life's ending
So in all I don't know, God I need You, I need You to keep me close...

I'll push away
But I really want You to stay
Can You be the strength of my faith?
I need You to keep me close...

Do you think I'm a fool
'Cause I deserve that
I'm just a broken tool
Devoid of functionality
Why can't You be my first resort
Why must You be my last resort...

I am forgiven and I don't deserve that...
I have the remedy and didn't even do a thing.
I'm making You my only choice
I'm making You my only choice

I'll push away
But I really want You to stay
Can You be the strength of my faith?
I need You to keep me close...

I am much less faithful than you think I am
My heart's palate tastes bitterness and loves bland
Need to water myself, 'cause I'm dry land
I want to know but I don't really want to understand...

But I've come to know one thing
To be alone, it could be my life's ending
So in all I don't know, God I need You, I need You to keep me close...

I'll push away
But I really want You to stay
Can You be the strength of my faith?
I need You to keep me close...
