So Close

These days
I don't even recognise myself
This persona doesn't suit me
But there's nothing else on the shelf
It's all I have
It's all that fits
The rest has been worn out
And torn to bits

I've been ringing
I've been knocking
I've been trying to sneak in
I've been writing lots of letters
But you still won't let me win
Yes I know that I'm annoying
And this wasn't meant to be
So close
But not enough not enough not enough
Not enough not enough not enough

Lately
Days have been blending into colours
That I don't wanna see
I've been taking myself to places
That I shouldn't be
Anywhere near
Oh dear I shouldn't be here
You've been drawing lines
And I've been crossing them
You've been doing fine
But I haven't been

I've been ringing
I've been knocking
I've been trying to sneak in
I've been writing lots of letters
But you still won't let me win
Yes I know that I'm annoying
And this wasn't meant to be
So close
But not enough not enough not enough
Not enough not enough not enough

You've been running
You've been hiding
Made me feel like a monster
For caring
A bit too much a bit too much a bit too much
A bit too much a bit too much a bit too much

I've been ringing
I've been knocking
I've been trying to sneak in
I've been writing lots of letters
But you still won't let me win
Yes I know that I'm annoying
And this wasn't meant to be
So close
But not enough not enough not enough
Not enough not enough not enough
