Closing Time Songtext / Lyric

Should we get straight to the essentials

Will I be strong enough to cope?

Should I reply to tricky questions

When I know my answer's wrong

This is a one-way situation

You cannot speak of what you did

And while you left so many questions

We must guess that this is it



And now I'm lost and overruled

My eyes sore and

As time was closing in on you

Fearstroking



Would you still like me if I blew it

If I deceived you in your grief

Though I can't know how you have suffered
