I'm running away from all these things that I don't understand
It's like all that emptiness is running back
So get away before I make a mess again
Pour my drink out
Wish this night would end
Closer
Closer again
Closer
Closer again
Closer
Closer again
So pull me out of this mess
Bring me closer again
Closer to being something that I can be proud to be
Don't leave me lying in my own self destructive desire
I need your help or else I'll wallow in my shame
I'm trying to work out how I change and change again
There's just an all or nothing weight that's on my chest
I'm trying to become the best version on myself
But I keep finding respite in a bottle's end
Closer
Closer again
Closer
Closer again
Closer
Closer again
So pull me out of this mess
Bring me closer again
Closer to being something that I can be proud to be
Don't leave me lying in my own self destructive desire
I need your help or else I'll wallow in my shame
Now only time will tell
If they might even care
Let their beer taste like blood tonight
And as the morning comes
You have been and you've done
Yet they all lay still comatose
Why won't you bring me closer
And let me lead the way
Why won't you bring me closer
And let me lead the way for you my friend
