I keep you near
You give words to my thoughts
You name them
You give me something to write about
Something to feel
I keep you near
For my own benefit
To pain and revolve me
I keep you near
Not for love
For my interest
Because you give me a reason
To aspire
To conquer
Oh yes
I keep you near
For the same selfish reasons as you
To satisfy my ego
To build myself up
I keep you here
Till you grow out of me
Till I'm too big you won't fit
I keep you near
I keep you near indeed

Oh yes

For the same selfish reasons as you
To satisfy my ego
To build myself up
I keep you here
Till you grow out of me
Till I'm too big you won't fit
I keep you near
I keep you near indeed
