(Don't) Close Your Eyes
I watch the sun go down within the scene it sets
Dead leaves and silhouettes
There's worry in the air, it's blowing through the trees
And we just hang our heads
A man on t.v. says, "The sky is falling down"
It makes me want to cry
It feels like screaming without sound
A silent film just spins around
We plan with dated maps
The roads we knew just artifacts of when we could still get home
Put up a picket fence and have a dream in future tense
But now, it feels like the unknown
Can't help but feeling that I'm up on the ceiling
Gonna fall
Cut the cord, turn off my phone
Shut out the world, and be alone
But you can't close your eyes
Better days won't find you
Clear a path for those beside you
Don't look away
From what you know reminds you
Just look around
We're right behind you
Don't close your eyes
Dead leaves and silhouettes
There's worry in the air, it's blowing through the trees
And we just hang our heads
A man on t.v. says, "The sky is falling down"
It makes me want to cry
It feels like screaming without sound
A silent film just spins around
We plan with dated maps
The roads we knew just artifacts of when we could still get home
Put up a picket fence and have a dream in future tense
But now, it feels like the unknown
Can't help but feeling that I'm up on the ceiling
Gonna fall
Cut the cord, turn off my phone
Shut out the world, and be alone
But you can't close your eyes
Better days won't find you
Clear a path for those beside you
Don't look away
From what you know reminds you
Just look around
We're right behind you
Don't close your eyes
