Lyrics:

Being alive costs a lot of money
So does dying
Giving up takes a lot of effort
But sort of trying
You can sell yourself, your own soul babe
If no one's buying
I get the feeling I'm further away (I get the feeling)
I get the feeling I'm further away (I get the feeling)
I get the feeling I'm further away
The closer I get
I try to live in the light of day
But I don't feel enlightened
I'm scared of what I'll have to do
But I'm not frightened
My heart lives in the same old cage babe
These walls they've tightened
I get the feeling I'm further away (I get the feeling)
I get the feeling I'm further away (I get the feeling)
I get the feeling I'm further away
The closer I get
I get closer, all I know
You can't see the big picture from below
Say you're all grown up now, past is gone
A little piece of what we had still lingers on

Standing for something is hard
Standing for nothing's harder
Try not to act like a total jerk
But they still call you a martyr
I'm just somebody's mother, somebody's sister
Who's somebody's daughter
I get the feeling I'm further away (I get the feeling)
I get the feeling I'm further away (I get the feeling)
I get the feeling I'm further away
The closer I get
The closer I get (I get the feeling)
The closer I get (I get the feeling)
The closer I get (I get the feeling)
The closer I get (I get the feeling)
(I get the feeling)
So far away (I get the feeling)
I'm so far away (I get the feeling)
The closer I get (I get the feeling)
(I get the feeling)
(I get the feeling)
(I get the feeling)
