Lyrics

Sound the alarm
There's another outbreak
Put on your mask
Put your money in a safe place

If everybody's in control
Then, nobody's in control

Freedom is more than the ability to consume
It only takes a little bit of light to fill a room
I'll tear the walls from this building
If that's what I have to do

And All I Want Is To Be Close To You

I'm not afraid to die and now I'm free to live
For everyone that takes
There's somebody else that gives
We came into this world alone and we all go out alone

And All I Want Is To Be Close To You

Raise your voice
This might be your last chance
Grab your partner
This could be your last dance
It's last call for alcohol
The bar is closing soon

And All I Want Is To Be Close To You
