Almost Lyrics

I only want what's impossible

And hard to find

So what I get

Is more to get used to

I've got to stop myself

When I start speaking my mind

Cause if I said

What I meant

I just might lose you

I don't work a room like you do

Everybody's talkin' I don't choose to

Mask it I'm exhausted

Last week gave half of what it cost

These useless go rounds

Slow my drive down

We used to stay up now we turn the lights out

Cause it's

Almost

But not quite

There where it should be

It's not wrong

It's alright

It's easy

Still I believe

In far off possibilities

Gotta believe

In timelines

Where it's different

I watch myself scold myself

For my selfish nature

Like it might possibly help

Someone else

Or show the angels

I mean well

But they've grown cold

I only call when

I'm in hell

Like a wrestler who cannot sell

Tried to be a face and then bellicose

The crowd was indifferent

They caught on quick

They know

I wont wear that belt

I've told you all the ways I felt

You said we play the hand we're dealt

Well a man needs fictions

If his hand can't match his ambition

It's almost

But not quite

There where it should be

It's not wrong

It's alright

It's easy

Still I believe

In far off possibilities

Gotta believe

In timelines

Where it's different

Tough luck kid

Take a loan out

Tough luck

Conditions will apply

Put your name down

Next to all the rest of them

Tough luck

You got so close this time
