    I see a lot of people associating this song with a relationship but to me it really resonates with my struggles with addiction. Sometimes this song can bring me to tears, so happy to be sober now and out of that dark place addiction brings you to. I got love for all the addicts out there and their struggles when the times get rough. Give yourself a chance, it gets better.

      I feel the same way but instead of addiction I’m struggling to find happiness since I lost my grandma and my family is slowly becoming more and more distant. I need my brothers and to me they are going through depressions, each one struggling in their own ways trying to make a better life for themselves. But I will get through this and bring them up, I love this song and it has helped me.

    Lyrics for "Closer I Get"
    (feat. John Popper)
    People say it just doesn’t matter but,
    The Closer I Get, I’m giving in, I can’t escape, damn what a shame.
    Listen to me just for a minute,
    I can be quick no gimmick.
    I’ve got a plan we should live it.
    The Closer I Get, I can't relate,
    This ain’t our place, let us go far far away.
    Find a new home, rules of our own, you and me both are the same.
    Try to be strong, baby come on now, come on.
    Lie after lie, so many times, when I try to find a peace of mind.
    I’ve got love for you when the time gets rough
    When all the stress adds up,
    When you say “I’ve had enough”.
    Got love for, you when the time gets rough.
    When all the stress adds up,
    When you say “I’ve had enough”.
    Whatever happened to the good times?
    We should create for ourselves, not rely on.
    They’ll never get a hold of me.
    Simple you see, simplicity.
    Yeah, the Closer I Get, I can't relate, I can’t escape, oh the pain.
    I’ve been lied all the time, when I'm tryin’ to find a peace of mind.
    I’ve got love for you when the time gets rough.
    When all the stress adds up,
    When you say “I’ve had enough”.
    Got love for, you when the time gets rough.
    When all the stress adds up,
    When you say “I’ve had enough”.
    Yes I found my own way out,
    I’m going all the way,
    Until the people all find out,
    They're going all the way down.

    Everyone seems to have different reasons for living and understanding this song. For me it really is about learning the truth about the world we live in so we can live how we were truly meant to live before the corruption of the mind, body, and spirit. Also i find it very easy to relate to your most passionate relationship with a significant other.

Stevie Wonder is a genius at it too but John takes this to a totally different level. The last few notes John did before the song went off was angelic. I didn't think someone could actually manipulate a harmonica like that. Born talent. Thank you John Popper! PEACE

    Such a beautiful song to drift away too! When politics, news, and the state this country is in I play this song and all is right with the world!

    *Lyrics*
    People say it just doesn't matter but,
    The Closer I Get, I’m giving in, I can’t escape, damn what a shame.
    Listen to me just for a minute,
    I can be quick no gimmick.
    I've got a plan we should live it.
    The Closer I Get, I can't relate,
    This ain't our place, let us go far far away.
    Find a new home, rules of our own, you and me both are the same.
    Try to be strong, baby come on now, come on.
    Lie after lie, so many times, when I try to find a peace of mind.
    I've got love for you when the time gets rough
    When all the stress adds up,
    When you say “I've had enough”.
    Got love for, you when the time gets rough.
    When all the stress adds up,
    When you say “I've had enough”.
    Whatever happened to the good times?
    We should create for ourselves, not rely on.
    They’ll never get a hold of me.
    Simple you see, simplicity.
    Yeah, the Closer I Get, I can't relate, I can’t escape, oh the pain.
    I've been lied all the time, when I'm tryin’ to find a peace of mind.
    I've got love for you when the time gets rough.
    When all the stress adds up,
    When you say “I've had enough”.
    Got love for, you when the time gets rough.
    When all the stress adds up,
    When you say “I've had enough”.
    Yes I found my own way out,
    I’m going all the way,
    Until the people all find out,
    They're going all the way down.
