Running through town with his finger flipped Crying inside for the love he missed
Kissing your face with pale fist He could fly
He could fly
Missy was a swimmer in her own school team Cut through the water like a fish in the stream But when she got home and heard her mother scream Put her fingers in her ears and began to dream She could fly
She could fly
Closer what do you say?
It was all too much to bear
Closer were not the same
It was not your pain to share
And I will never be a hero
But I can look you in the eye
try try try
Norma was a shadow in the back of the class Never saw her move never heard her ask Hiding from the words thought they cut like glass
Hiding from your friends and away you left
She could fly
She could fly
Closer what do you say?
It was all too much to bear
Closer were not the same
It was not your pain to share
And I will never be a hero But I can look you in the eye
try try try
And one day they will need you
Oh he will need them plenty
And one day they will love you
But they will know your friends
And when they will know like I do
Like I do eh yea yea
They will know like I do
Like I like I like I Closer what do you say? It was all too much to bear
Closer were not the same
It was not your pain to share
And I will never be a hero But I can look you in the eye
