The Closer I Look

And if not here
 then where else
 might one live
 easy?
 ♪
 in tomorrow?
 underneath all the spikes
 left of memory's sprawl?
 the closer I look
 everyday at the doors!
 But it felt weird
 ♪
 just walking out
 not sure if
 I came close
 ♪
 Minor deity
 to you spoke:
 "when first faced with it
 take the compliment
 more directions
 to follow"
 current sympathies
 have been of use to me
 got sad, did something
 of note
 
 helps to worry sometimes
 the closer I look
 every day at the walls
 
 have they warned you?
 are they going to?
 On a bus to Duluth
 heard about the scene there
 ♪
 the closer I look
 the more it takes away
 the closer I look
 the further it feels/seems today/away
 the more it feels/seems ok
 Have they shown you
 streets off the main?
 Me? I Don't know the way!
 ♪
 Lead me there!
 Lead me to
 Lead me to
 some practical use
 lead me to
 ♪
 lead me to
