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.
Histories are held within your heart
So let it go
Open all the doors around your eyes
And let us know
Certain keys are held within your hand
So let it show
Bring us closer to the flame
Bring us closer to the fire
Where's the spark within your eye
Where's the spark
Thunder in your ears
Until you can't hear this at all
Rivers flowing tears
Until your destinies dissolve
Drifting through the years
Until a voice receives your call
Bring us closer to the fire
Bring us closer to the flame
The end and beginning are the same
It's all the same
Mysteries are kept within your heart
So let it show
Open all the doors around your eyes
And let us know
Certain keys were held until they must have let you go
Bring us closer to the flame
Bring us closer to the fire
