you can listen to the money you can listen to your friends but if you listen to your heartbeat you might never go home again you got 1000 miles and 10 000 more to go there s blood on the wheel and you feel like everything s outta control well maybe i m just the foolish kind keepin record of what i ve left behind yet i find there ain t nothing i can do im getting closer to you theres trouble down here theres trouble down there but everyday that goes by i swear its harder and harder to care i fight the good fight i do the best i can but man sometimes its impossible to stand where you think you should stand so hey mister give me something strong sometimes i feel so good and then that feelings gone but it won t be long before ill be coming through im getting closer to you some people say never some people say now some people get together and do what some people dont allow some people like to laugh at the people who cry and my how everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody s ready to die now nevermind my state of mind neon signs across the borderline closing time and i think its time i flew im getting closer to you
