The Closer I Get To You

I can't begin to make no sense of it all

Maybe I don't try enough

But there is nothing that I wouldn't do

I would beg, I would plead for our love

I want to know if you're just tired of me

Or have we just grown apart?

Our existence is just floating at sea

Cut adrift from the people we are

There is no answer, no question, no lie

I'm losing count of days passing by

It's like cancer, it's consuming my soul

Nothing there, nothing left, should I die

You can't see, what you do to me, if you did

Then you might even try

I cannot breathe, no way to proceed

And I ain't got what I need to get by

The closer I get to you

The further you push me away

I don't know what to do

I just don't know what to say

The closer I get to you

The further you push me away

I don't know what to do

I just don't know what to say

I walk the street 'cos I don't wanna go home

I know that something's so wrong

I guess I just can't face the truth of it all

And admit it's been dead for so long

If I could then I would sit with you now

To talk, and try to make sense

And summon every ounce of courage I have

But I can't, for the fear is immense

Don't even need to know a reason for this

Just leave it all in the past

Or I will tumble down into the abyss

And this breath that I take is my last

You can't see, what you do to me, if you did

Then you might even try

I cannot breathe, no way to proceed

And I ain't got what I need to get by

The closer I get to you

The further you push me away

I don't know what to do

I just don't know what to say

The closer I get to you

The further you push me away

I don't know what to do

I just don't know what to say

The closer I get to you

The further you push me away

I don't know what to do

I just don't know what to say
