"Closer Than You Think" lyrics

"Closer Than You Think"

A Greek tragedy
You ain't left that room for days
It's your hideaway
I'm on the outside looking in
And it's killin' me
And there ain't nothin' I can do
Or I could say
To change a thing

If the world's just spinnin like a timebomb tickin' away
Then go and lock that door and you can throw that old key away
I know your heart's still hurtin', you can take it out on me
There's a light up ahead
A little closer than you think

It's the strangest thing
I knew the day would come
But it hit like a tidal wave
No, there's nothing quite like the first time your heart breaks
Yeah, you asked, "How long am I gonna feel this way?"
You know, I can't say

But if the world's just spinnin like a timebomb tickin' away
Then go and lock that door and you can throw that old key away
I know your heart's still hurtin', you can take it out on me
Take it out on me

So let's go scream at the sky
Like no one's listening
I know it feels like the ending
But somebody did the same thing to me
And here we are
I wouldn't have it any other way

If the world's just spinnin like a timebomb tickin' away
Then go and lock that door and you can throw that old key away
I know your heart's still hurtin', you can take it out on me
There's a light up ahead
A little closer than you think
