Текст песни Closer - The Fixx

Burn a bridge, blow up a car
Torch a flag, I'd bear the scar
Hustle for peace, settle for less
Fundamentals make their bets

The battle lost is irony
Damming down, what's in it for me?
Out for lunch, I felt the weight
Believing everything I've read

Getting closer
Don't you feel closer?

This gaping monster of apathy
Tell me man, what is it to be?
There's freedom of choice, a choice or not?
There's so much to lose, many have not

The pressure builds, anger grows
Blows the lid as it overthrows
Blind rage, counting death
Moving orders, lost the town

Getting closer
Getting closer
Getting closer
How far from closer?
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah

Gas or electric fuel Noah's Ark
This is where I get off, fools disembark
Left behind in paper and pen
Revolution invents again

We're free as far as we can throw the key
A prison of reason makes room for me
Strike a chord, hit a nerve
Not fit for purpose or to serve

Well, is it a bird? Is it a drone?
A violent peace protects our home
Talking robots are on the calls
Self deluded on a smart dumb phone

Why cast a spell when you can send a text?
Mesmerized and we've all been hexed
Now the targets where we shop
I'm overdosing as the penny drops

And it's getting closer
Don't you feel closer?
Getting closer
Far from closer
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah

Closer
Closer
No sir

Don't you feel
Closer?
Closer
No sir!

Don't you feel
Closer?
Come a little closer
Don't you feel
Closer?
