Closer Than We Think

What's it gonna take for me

I'm on my hands and knees

While all the poets fille pages of loose leaf

I feel cheap and I feel empty (I feel empty)

We will bathe in the sea of disbelief

But we will not go quickly

No we will not die so easily

And I knew that this would happen

It always does

And I couldn't stop my reaction

So I let it come

I let it come

I still hold the belief that we are free

That we don't need the rules to see

That despite what we've done,

We're not alone

We're closer than we think to home

It didn't take me long to believe that I could do anything

Turn the songs up loud so we can sing

I am true and I am living (I am living)

And we will walk through the valley of the shadow of the boring

and burn it all

No, we will not go quietly

And I knew that this would happen

It always does

And I couldn't stop my reaction

So I let it come

I let it come

I still hold the belief that we are free

That we don't need the rules to see

That despite what we've done,

We're not alone

We're closer than we think to home

To home, To home,

To home, To home,

To home, To home,

To home

Across the water

You call me, but I'm not listening

As I sink down (sink down)

Water fills my lungs as I begin to drown

I knew that this would

I still hope you believe that we are free

That we don't need the rules to see

That despite what we've done,

We're not alone

We're closer than we think to home
