Rebelution, John Popper - Closer I Get lyrics

People say it just doesn't matter, but
The closer I get, I'm giving in
I can't escape, damn what a shame

Listen to me just for a minute
I can be quick, no gimmick
I got a plan, we should live it

The closer I get, I can't relate
This ain't our place, let us go far, far away
Find a new home, rules of our own
You and me both are the same
Try to be strong, baby come on now, come on
Lie after lie, so many times
When I try to find a peace of mind
I've got love for you when
The time gets rough
When all the stress adds up
And when you say "I've had enough"
Got love for you when the time gets rough
When all the stress adds up
And when you say "I've had enough"

Whatever happened to the good times?
We should create for ourselves, not rely on
They'll never get a hold of me
Simple, you see, simplicity, yeah
The closer I get, I can't relate
I can't escape all the pain
I've been right all the time
When I try to find a peace of mind

I've got love for you when
The time gets rough
When all the stress adds up
And when you say "I've had enough"
Got love for you when the time gets rough
When all the stress adds up
And when you say "I've had enough"

Yes I found my own way out
I'm going all the way
Until the people all find out
The're going all the way down
