Closer - Liquid Gang

Self starter since the age of ten I didn’t know I’d have to go down fighting

Down this road

Again class clown to a corner I was bound a dunce cap wearing.

Real God fearin

Who never

Made a sound

I cut my head out of the classroom picture and thought that I was the victor I

was blind

Now I’m closer to the ideal complexion

Closer for my own protection

Closer to the edge

I never thought that I could be so blind

A white shirt plaid tie wearing, child prodigy

Two steps from sanity

One from the edge

A glance away from a face that shatters me

As photogenic as a freak

Poster boy for the meek

Pale face and week

God damn, my future looks bleak

I cut my head out of the classroom picture and thought that I was the victor I

was blind

I’m closer to the ideal complexion

Closer for my own protection

Closer to the edge

I never thought that I could be so blind blind
