Lyrics
Closer To The End
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.
It only took a second and it all fell down
You turn your back for a moment and you're back on the ground
You're lost and everyone around you got old
Nothing quite like the sense of losing control
You can spend a lifetime believing and pretending
But you're really just another step closer to the end
You spent a lifetime amending, atoning, condescending
You got the biggest soul but is it really neverending?
Cause you are really just one step closer to the end
We are really just one step closer to the end
Well you've been trying to find a place that isn't so cold
But you just can't seem to find a way out of that hole
Everything you ever did, everything you tried was in vain
You're getting smaller and you're wishing it was someone else's pain
So you own everyone, everyone's afraid of you
It only took a second and you ruined someone new
Oh you got it made, the blood belongs to somebody else
But soon enough you're gonna know how emptiness feels
Cause you are really just one step closer to the end
We are really just one step closer to the end
When all is dead and gone
You're not the only one
When all your hope is gone
No you are not alone
