Anything Near Conviction

Collecting

I'm all but disconnected

Convincing

I'm not too sure I've reached

Anything near conviction

But the headlight's out

And the searing glow

Of my shame and my doubt

All around

I don't ever wanna hear you say

That this is the best that you will ever get from me

And I don't ever wanna make do

'Cause I love and miss you

I'm not safe and I'm scared

I know it's breaking us both the same

There's a deep divide in what's running our lives

And what we do to save face, stay sane

I stayed up through the sun and the dust

While the black and the grey and the night wore off

Took its place as a broken and breaking day

I don't ever wanna hear you say

That this is the best that you will ever get from me

And I don't ever wanna make do

This isn't the best that I will ever give to you

Spent the night at a stranger's place

When the lights went dark, I see barren, laid to waste

Staring at your pretty face

You're not living, you're dying, I'm not living

I don't ever wanna hear you say

That this is the best that you will ever get from me

And I don't ever wanna make do

I don't ever wanna hear you say

That this is the best that you will ever get from me

And I don't ever wanna make do

Connecting

I'm all but disconnected

Convincing

Well, I'm not too sure I've reached

Anything near conviction
