Close To Nature by Rational Youth Lyrics

I walked a path through a notion of time
Like a particle of dust in a small beam of light
Where a shape is not a shape the world is just a dream
Close to nature

I left a trace where a world lived and died
A message out of time like a pure wave of motion
And all that moves is still
Close to nature

The unity of things is the essence of truth
Though some would try to rule the universe by force
But I prefer to stay
Close to naturе

I feel the pain like a thousand knives
A cancеr in the soul, I am consumed
The more I try to walk
Close to nature

A flash of light, the sky erupting
My eyes are burned
I cannot bear to see the awful power
Close to nature
This is the end of the beginning
This is the death of life
And all that once did live
Close to nature
