Get Closer Now

I always wished to be around

My brother's kids as they become

Young folks to gaze at

And to be proud

To know that life will stick around

Through all the rights and wrongs that we've sustained forever

But here we are so far from that

Lately I began to wonder

What's there for me around this town?

Whose skyline shape seems like forever growing monsters

It gets me down, so down

And for the first time

Thoughts grow and road

And get closer now to where I'm from

I look at the faces that I've know since

My younger days and let them see

That I now understand the meaning of relations

And get closer now to who I am

Lately I began to wonder

What's there for me around this town?

Whose skyline shape seems like forever growing monsters

It gets me down, so down

And weirder scenes appears in my dreams

And when I wake up they never stop

The millions people I pass have blinded faces

It gets me down

So down

Wish I was closer

To life
