[Lyric] Close to Nowhere (Plaguestorm)

They are the outstretched arm
Claiming some dignity
Waiting to get up from the ashes of chaos
And the irreparable waste of life

They are exhausted souls
That sail in a sea of darkness that pulls them inward
In a vortex of greed and lies

They are so close, so close to nowhere
They are so close, but they can't reach the shore
They are so close, so close to nowhere
They are so close
But you, but you shouldn't even try

I bid you welcome
Welcome to our world
We call it subsistence
Time eats you up
It smells you
It chews you
And then spits you out
To swallow you whole again
They are like ghosts
That roam in the dark
Trying to be reborn
Beneath the remains of hypocrisy

They are like fucking puppets
Who play a game in vain
In which they try to cut the ties of misery

They are so close, they are so close to nowhere

They are so close, so close to nowhere
They are so close
But you, but you shouldn't even try
