Almost Loved You

I've never felt so damn exposed

It's like you held me up just to let me go

And left 'em in a lie

And I said, "It didn't hurt," but if I'm being honest

The closer we got, the further I fell

So close, I almost loved you

I tried my best to hold my breath

Turns out I was right to second guess

You gave your word and made a promise

And left them in a lie

And I said, "It didn't hurt," but if I'm being honest

The closer we got, the further I fell

So close, I almost

Loved you

And sometimes, I still
