Closing Time

Should we get straight to the essentials
Will I be strong enough to cope?
Should I reply to nasty 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
'Cause we live things differently

And now I'm lost and overruled
My eyes sore and
I gently lay my hands on you
Fearstrokin'

Let's believe
I try to release you
Call on me
But I can't receive you
Come on and share this thing with me
I know you can't
I know you can't

Why can't you share this thing with me?

And now I'm lost and overruled
My eyes closed and
As time was
Closing in on you
Fearstrokin'

And now I'm lost and overruled
My eyes sore and
I gently lay my hands on you
Fearstrokin'

I know you can't…
