Closer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I was born in the city
Went out on my own
Climbed the highest mountain that I know (oh)
Hunted for some elk, fixed up my own tent (oh oh)
But I'm still closer, close to nature
Closer, close to God
Closer, closer to myself
I went down to the valley
And I saw a gun
Clutched so tightly by the hunter pointing at his mouth (oh)
I ran as fast as I could but when I looked to where he stood he was gone
I saw him fall
But now he's closer, close tu nature
Closer, close to God
Closer, closer to himself
I went back to the city where I wasn't know
Walked the streets all night feeling so alone (oh)
Buildings like chandeliers iluminating my fears (oh oh)
But I'm still closer, close to nature
Closer, close to God
Closer, closer to myself
