Convenient

You can't keep burning the candle at both ends
Staying up all night chain-smoking your past
For all I give
For all you take back
It isn't right
But I'm a sucker for your touch
For your love or lack thereof
For all the times for not enough
I'm a ghost
Of all you left behind
And now your eyes they glaze to mine
And now I know you never felt what I did but
I got to know
No no no
I got to know
I got to know
Was I just the closest thing to you?

Could I have been anyone?
Would you have had anyone?
Or was my love convenient for you?
Could I have been anyone?
Would you have had anyone?

Are we just gonna sit and pretend
Like you didn't ask for something you knew I couldn't give you
There's nothing left to say that I haven't thought a million times over
But you know I always like to give you your way
And I don't know what it takes
To be someone you can love
Someone you can trust
Every time I open up
I fake a smile still not enough
When I stand tall you call my bluff
The way I used to be was nothing but a stroke of luck
And I know you never felt what I did but
I got to know
No no no
I got to know
I got to know
Was I just the closest thing to you?

Could I have been anyone?
Would you have had anyone?
Or was my love convenient for you?
Could I have been anyone?
Would you have had anyone?
Or was my love convenient for you?

Was I just
The closest thing to love?
Did I ever
Make the cut?
Was I just
The closest
