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.

You run. You Fall.

You're chasing the wind. Your horses are strong, but they never win.

You laugh. You smile.

Something is missing. Your web is wide, but nothing is sticking.

The city we live is where love goes to die

The people we meet, all say goodbye

But if you ask them to stay, they will find a way

to a place that one day we'll call home

It's lonely sometimes in the dead of night

The streetlights flicker inside my mind

All I wanna be is a little bit closer

when we get together we're so much stronger

You sing your songs,

but no-ones listening. you draw your guns, when no one's shooting

You spend it all

You're saving nothing.

You want everything, but no one's giving

The city we live is where love goes to die

The people we meet, all say goodbye.

But if you ask them to stay, they will find a way

to a place that one day we'll call home

When everyone seems so far away

I close my eyes and I see your face

All I wanna be is a little bit closer

when your not around its so much colder

It's lonely sometimes in the dead of night

The streetlights flicker inside my mind

All I wanna be is a little bit closer

when we get together we're so much stronger.
