Closer to the Picture Songtext

Closer to the picture
Closer to the picture
Closer to the picture

Closer to the picture

On and on, on and on we′re climbing
Closer to the picture
Serotone low low, Sarah's tone low
A quiet pessimistic (just a shy socialistic)

I don′t feel bad about it
So eloquently undecided
Should I feel bad about it?
(Weight off my back, no strings attached, I just collapse)

Like me hiding in the bleachers
How will I ever learn to drown it out?
Heartbeat, head between the speakers
When did it ever get to be so loud?
Closer to the picture
Closer to the picture


Punch with a fist, high five to a friend
Classic cheap humour
I tied a string to the end of a Coke can
Guess you didn't hear me (or maybe I don't listen)

I don′t feel bad about it
So eloquently undecided (shit)
Should I feel bad about it?
(Weight off my back, no strings attached, I just collapse)

Like me hiding in the bleachers
How will I ever learn to drown it out?
Heartbeat, head between the speakers
When did it ever get to be so loud?
Closer to the picture
Closer to the picture
Closer to the picture
Closer to the picture

Man, I just left in a hurry
Caught some old friends on the stairs
Said, "Do you ever think about your future?
Falling apart in your head"


Like me hiding in the bleachers
How will I ever learn to drown it out?
Heartbeat, head between the speakers
When did it ever get to be so loud? (Man, I just left in a hurry)
Closer to the picture (caught some old friends on the stairs)
Closer to the picture (said, "Do you ever think about your future?")
