IQ - Closer lyrics

What began as hope Became the fate of many nations Founded on a lie Believed by everyone Slandered and betrayed A character a**a**ination Watch the guilty fade Now the work is done Ghosts of early days Gather round the late arrivals All parade upon The earth to which they're bound Silent in their course They steal across the icy stations Words are useless now They fall upon the ground One and the same Parallels remain In air as in the flame I can see everything get closer everyday Hold on

When I'm dead and gone from you Remember me as light breaking through Stay strong Any time you feel you're lost I will carry you back across Call out Send the word from there to here Promise you I'm always near Know now Nothing anyone can say Will keep me from you anyway And in the end When other days have pa**ed you by If beauty has a name Waiting beneath the ruby sky One and the same Wanting to keep the pain away In errors made again I can see everything get closer every day
