Intro: This land is real, real as the next man this land is there for all to see you’re standing there so cold and calm you stand so close to me!... And you out there can keep away there’s nothing owed to you: all I want is to lose myself and stay so close to you. The river is cruel its pipes are sprayed with long forgotten names big boys now with kids whose lives will never feel the same. If you out there don’t get what I say, there’s nothing owed to you, to feel that way is born inside no matter what you do. I wonder how my fortune fell when everything began to melt the case I had for wasting that that never came I want to walk away again!! Away again!! Away again!! There to wonder how those things will never be searching for that grand illusion fools have called the key. If you don’t care just keep away, how can I give hope to you? Nearer now are both our futures, me, our hearts and you and yet all I want is to lose myself and stay so close to you. All I want is stay so close to you!...
