So close, just a split second away
I'm so close, just a split second away
I can change the future
I know I easily can
Force my way through the air
As the hour glass drops sand
It seems like we're all floating
Through these lives we lead
Nobody's ever really knowing me
So close
Just a split second away
So close
Just a split second away
Then I saw my life laid out
For me out there on the road
As if I had no choice
Just doing what I've been told
And as I watched the world
Blaze before my eyes
There were no words to describe
So close
Just a split second away
So close
Just a split second away
Now everybody has a chance
To listen when they hear
Let the words and the words and the words and the words
You want to go through their ears
But there's a lot of writing to take in stride
It's either that or suicide
So close, just a split second away
I'm so close, just a split second away
