R.E.M.

R.E.M. was an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills and drummer Bill Berry. One of the first popular alternative rock bands, R.E.M. gained early attention due to Buck's ringing, arpeggiated guitar style and Stipe's unclear vocals. R.E.M. released its first single, "Radio Free Europe", in 1981 on the independent record label Hib-Tone. The single was followed by the Chronic Town EP in 1982, the band's first release on I.R.S. Records.

Nothing could be bring me closer
Nothing could be bring me near
Where is the road I follow
To leave, leave?

It's under, under, under my feet
The sea spread out there before me
Where do I go when the land touches sea?
There is my trust in what I believe

That's what keeps me
That's what keeps me
That's what keeps me down
To leave, believe it
Leave it all behind

Shifting the dream
Nothing could bring me further
From my old friend time

Shifting the dream
It's charging the scene
I know where I marked the signs

I suffer the dreams of a world gone mad
I like it like that and I know it
I know it well, ugly and sweet
That temper madness with an even extreme

That's what keeps me
That's what keeps me
That's what keeps me down

I say that I'm a bantam lightweight
I say that I'm a phantom airplane
That never left the ground

Lift my hands, my eyes are still
I'll walk into the sea
Lift myself a different place
Just leave it

I've longed for this to take me
I've longed for my release
I've waited for the callin'
To leave

That's what keeps me
That's what keeps me
That's what keeps me down
To leave, believe it
Leave it all behind

That's what keeps me
That's what keeps me
That's what keeps me down
To leave, believe it
Leave it all behind

Leave, leavin'
Leave, leave, leave
Leave, leave, leavin'
Leave, leave, leave
