Closer

Burn a bridge blow up a car
Torch a flag I'd bear the scar
Hustle for peace settle for less
Fundamentals make their beds
The battle lost so is irony
Dumbing down what's in it for me
After lunch I'll surf the web
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
Is freedom of choice a choice or not
There's so much to lose many have not
The pressure builds, anger blows
Blows the lid as it overthrows
Blind rage counting down
Law and order's lost the town
Getting closer getting closer
Getting closer far from closer

Gas or electric fuel Noah's ark
This is where i get off fools disembark
Left behind at 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
Is it a bird is it a drone
A violent peace protects our home
Talking robots or are we clones
Self-deluded on a smart dumb phone
Why cast a spell
When you can send a text
Mesmerized we've all been hexed
Now the Target's where we shop
I'm overdosing as the penny drops
And its getting closer
Don't you feel closer
Getting closer
Far from closer

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