I went out in the street for a walk in the night Had to loosen my head, it's been wound too tight I've been standing on the edge after picking a fight with you Sometimes my world seems so damn small I can't think of nothing 'cept for me at all And my thoughts surround me like a prison wall, it's true I wanna get closer to you now I wanna get closer to you now It takes all my strength to slow myself down My thoughts are screaming, I can't hear a sound Sometimes I wish there was no one around but you Oh, tell me you know what I'm talking about Sometimes you're the sail like confusion and doubt And then it hurts so bad, you just wanna shout, "I'm through" I wanna get closer to you now I wanna get closer to you now I wanna get closer to you now I wanna get closer to you now Please forgive these things I might've said You see they come from my frustration, not my head And the last thing that I wanna do Is create a distance between me and you I wanna get closer to you now I gotta get closer to you now I wanna get closer to you now I gotta get closer to you now Well, there seem to be two states of mind One is visionary, the other blind And the best that we can hope to find Is to meet somewhere in between Well, the night air has pulled me back a bit Just when I was about to quit, trying to get a candle lit That lets me see what can't be seen I wanna get closer to you now I wanna get closer to you now I wanna get closer to you now I wanna get closer to you now I gotta get closer to you now I wanna get closer to you now I wanna get closer to you now
