Closer

open up your eyes... 

stranded in this spooky town 

stoplight is swaying and the phone lines are down 

snow is crackling cold 

she took my heart, i think she took my soul 

with the moon i run 

far from the carnage of the fiery sun 

driven by the strangle of vein 

showing no mercy i'd do it again 

open up your eyes 

you keep on crying 

baby i'll bleed you dry 

skies are blinking at me 

i see a storm bubbling up from the sea 

and it's coming closer 

and it's coming closer 

you shimmy-shook my boat 

leaving me stranded all in love on my own 

do you think of me 

where am i now 

baby where do i sleep 

feels so good but i'm old 

2000 years of chasing taking its toll 

and it's coming closer 

and it's coming closer 

and it's coming closer 

and it's coming closer
