If I stand too close I might fall in
But if I’m too far gone I’ll never win
If you believe in me I might just want to spend some time with you again
I’m afraid I tend to disappear into an anxious state when you draw near 
There is no reasoning it’s quite a silly thing 
But it’s the way I’ve been for years 
So I will understand if you don’t stay 
They say I’m great at first but then the magic fades 
Into an awful hue of dismal views and pessimistic attitude 

All this distance 
Years of sweet resistance 
Swirling over head 
Like angry clouds of discontent 

I have apologized a billion times 
When I’ve gone off the wall like Busta Rhymes 
And pulled a stupid stunt that left you thinking 
there was something wrong with me 
you’ve thrown a few choice phrases at my way 
And I’ve ignored them all as best I could 
Except that tiny bit 
How I just can’t commit 
There is some truth in what you say 

All this distance 
Years of sweet resistance 
Swirling over head 
Like angry clouds of discontent 

If I stand too close I might fall in 
But if I’m too far gone I’ll never win 
If you believe in me I might just want to spend some time with you again 
I'll spent some time with you again 

If I stand too close I might fall in 
But if I’m too far gone I’ll never win 
If you believe in me I might just want to spend some time with you again
