Near Lyrics & Chords By Sam Ock

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…
