Lyrics

The sun's creeping up and stomping on my dreams
Works all right, party's fine, but sleeping is my scene
The traffic inside your head is tearing you apart
So stick your fingers down my throat and grab on to my heart

And I'm walking a little closer
Walking a little closer
Walking just a little closer

Gonna rise up, take you away
Sunday's just another day
Now one thing I can guarantee
If you cut me, I will bleed

Her eyes shine like oceans and her skin is like the earth
Fuck the life out of her, yeah, you better take her for what she's worth
No free ride, yeah, this bus is on a charter
So get up off your ass, come on, try just a little harder

Come on, try a little harder
Try a little harder
Try a little harder

And I'm walking a little closer
Walking just a little closer
Walking a little closer

Hey, yo, ain't that bio or history
You'll never solve this mystery
Don't want your money, don't want your hand
I just want you to understand

You want to take that stuck up, take that stuff, walk this world of ignorance
Falling, falling, how desperate are we?

And I'm walking a little closer
Just walking a little closer
J—j—j—j—just walking just a little closer
I'm walking a little closer
