The Cure - 'Close To Me' is the first song that comes into my head. It's basically a song about wishing you were dead set to a groovy bassline and upbeat instrumentation.



I've waited hours for this
I've made myself so sick
I wish I'd stayed
asleep today

I never thought this day would end
I never thought tonight could ever be
this close to me

just try to see in the dark
just try to make it work
to feel the fear before you're here
I make the shapes come much too close
I pull my eyes out
hold my breath
and wait until I shake...

but if I had your faith
then I could make it safe and clean
if only I was sure
that my head on the door was a dream

I've waited hours for this
I've made myself so sick
I wish I'd stayed asleep today
I never thought this day would end
I never thought tonight could ever be
this close to me

but if I had your face
then I could make it safe and clean
if only I was sure
that my head on the door was a dream
