《Getting Closer (Alternate Version)》歌词

[00:00:06] I went searching for the truth

[00:00:10] But in my innocence I found

[00:00:13] All the con men and their acrobats

[00:00:16] Who stomped me in the ground

[00:00:19] If I count up their percentages

[00:00:22] I know they're getting rich

[00:00:24] But they haven't taken everything

[00:00:27] Those paybacks are a b***h

[00:00:30] Though I've lost quite a lot

[00:00:32] I am still in control

[00:00:35] They can keep what they've got

[00:00:38] But they can't have my soul

[00:00:41] And if I don't have this all worked out

[00:00:46] Still I'm getting closer

[00:00:51] Getting closer

[00:00:53] I still have far to go no doubt

[00:00:57] But I'm getting closer

[00:01:02] Getting closer

[00:01:03] What was ripped off by professionals

[00:01:06] Is not all that it seems

[00:01:08] While I must live up to contracts

[00:01:11] I did not give up my dreams

[00:01:14] If I see it as experience

[00:01:17] It hasn't gone to waste

[00:01:19] Lately all the missing pieces

[00:01:22] Have been falling into place

[00:01:25] And if I could go back

[00:01:28] And start over somehow

[00:01:30] I would not change that much

[00:01:33] Knowing what I know now

[00:01:36] Thought there have been sins

[00:01:39] I will regret

[00:01:41] Still I'm getting close

[00:01:46] Getting closer

[00:01:48] I don't have all the answers yet

[00:01:52] But I'm getting closer

[00:01:57] Getting closer

[00:02:42] I'm a mark for every shyster

[00:02:45] From Topanga to Berlin

[00:02:48] And I should have learned

[00:02:49] To kick them out

[00:02:51] As soon as they crawled in

[00:02:53] So to every bank in Switzerland

[00:02:56] That stores my stolen youth

[00:02:59] I'm alright because despite the laws

[00:03:02] You cannot hide the truth

[00:03:04] And although you will say

[00:03:07] I am still too naive

[00:03:09] But I have not lost faith

[00:03:12] In the things I believe

[00:03:15] And if I don't have a this all worked out

[00:03:20] Still I'm getting closer

[00:03:25] Getting closer

[00:03:27] I still have far to go no doubt

[00:03:32] But I'm still getting closer

[00:04:16] Getting closer
