Lyrics
Don't Come Any 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.
If this is the set
Then I'll take it all down
Don't come any closer
Than you have to
Like a film without the sound
You have to watch the words
As they appear
And I'll be acting out tomorrow
You'll be killing time by watching me
You're just killing time
And this is for show
I can see in your eyes
All of my ideals flash to nothing
Like a screen with nothing shown
No photograph to fill this hole I'm in
And I'll be acting out tomorrow
You'll be killing time by watching me
You're just killing time
And I'm so sick and tired of this
I don't need to feel lonely and
I'm just killing time
This is the way that
You're making me feel
