From the recording Mortal's Point Of View
Lyrics
Closer And Closer
Mother, I want to know
What kind of church
Leaves its doors swinging open
Father where does it show
What kind of sun
Fill an umbrella full of holes
The wind's so cold
You're head is feverish
Your faith unfolds
That you'll get through this
Don't you know there's an
Ill wind blowin'
But there's no breeze
Closer And Closer
It keeps on growin'
Bring the world to its knees
And still we believe
And we pray for relief
Closer And Closer
The ill wind's blowing
Bring the world to its knees
Noah where did you go
They were drowning in the waters
You were relaxing on the boat
Brother you're hard to know
When all the time
You move around your borders
Across your face
You take a beating
The weatherman is sick and bleeding
You don't forget this feeling
Don't you know there's an
Ill wind blowin'
But there's no breeze
Closer And Closer
It keeps on growin'
Bring the world to its knees
And still we believe
And we pray for relief
Closer And Closer
The ill wind's blowing
Bring the world to it's knees
Life looks long
When you're in the middle
Look back now and see that
You were a little
Crazy and free
But now time slows down
From minute to minute
You've got one left
And now you're in it
How's it feel
With everything you've
Said and done
Look at what you've become
