Lyrics

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 went out in the street for a walk in the night

Had to loosen my head, it's been wound too tight

I've been standing on the edge after picking a fight with you

Sometimes my world seems so damn small

I can't think of nothing 'cept for me at all

And my thoughts surround me like a prison wall, it's true

I wanna get closer to you now

I wanna get closer to you now

It takes all my strength to slow myself down

My thoughts are screaming, I can't hear a sound

Sometimes I wish there was no one around but you

Oh, tell me you know what I'm talking about

Sometimes you're the sail like confusion and doubt

And then it hurts so bad, you just wanna shout, "I'm through"

I wanna get closer to you now

I wanna get closer to you now

I wanna get closer to you now

I wanna get closer to you now

Please forgive these things I might've said

You see they come from my frustration, not my head

And the last thing that I wanna do

Is create a distance between me and you

I wanna get closer to you now

I gotta get closer to you now

I wanna get closer to you now

I gotta get closer to you now

Well, there seem to be two states of mind

One is visionary, the other blind

And the best that we can hope to find

Is to meet somewhere in between

Well, the night air has pulled me back a bit

Just when I was about to quit, trying to get a candle lit

That lets me see what can't be seen

I wanna get closer to you now

I wanna get closer to you now

I wanna get closer to you now

I wanna get closer to you now

I gotta get closer to you now

I wanna get closer to you now

I wanna get closer to you now
