Closer

You're crying raindrops
Rewind that part back please
You're crying raindrops
Your mind is never at ease
*instrumental*

You laugh with your friends
Round the corner at every bend
You wear make up and play pretend
Acting like there's nothing wrong
But when you're not with your friends
Playtime has come to an end
Wipe off your make up
Bury your face and cry

I see who you are

And you want someone to save you from your sins
Get you out of this world that you're living in
And you don't want yourself to fall apart
But you're getting closer everyday
Closer everyday
Closer

You're turning tables again
This life has no end
It's getting closer now
And when you're not with your friends
Confusion has no end
It takes the form of a thundercloud

And it's not your fault you felt this all before
Oh I'm only keeping score
It's not unusual at all
Sick and depressed
All these emotions you've repressed for so long
You don't know what to feel, anymore
----I see right through you

And you want someone to save you from your sins
Get you out of this world that you're living in
And you're tired of being weak, and you're sick of being strong
Sick of feeling this way for so damn long

I know who you are
I see what you are

Terribly mistaken
Mis understood and staken
Miserable and faking
Sad and mistaken

And you want someone to save you from your sins
Get you out of this world that you're living in
And you don't want yourself to fall apart
But you're getting closer everyday
Closer everyday
Closer everyday
Closer
