Lyrics
closer
V1
if you're the kind to hide away
too much on your mind with nothing to say
the devils daughter the mother of pain
the holy water that will keep the beasts at bay
chorus1
the streets are paved with gold
the losers bear no qualms
waves of joy come on
bringing you back to where we both know you belong
V2
feeling the heat out in the cold
out of the darkness and into the light
dragging your feet with nowhere to go
its a hell of a rush a hell of a ride
black is the colour of the poison dose
better hold on tighter
let me take you to a place where god himself may show
oh oh oh
chorus2
and as your memory fades
the fear will pass away
shades of blue and grey
bringing you back to where we both know you belong
solo both guitarists
outro
