Ostentatious Rant

I used to tell you about my fears
About my beard
About my dreams

I used to soak you up in mirth
A carnival at your feet

We dreamed one day we'll cross the sea
And find a place
To live and die in a festival of light and sound
When we close our eyes
Close our eyes
When we close our eyes
Close our eyes

Do you remember all the songs
I used to sing
To pass our time?
It was a lonesome night
A scary night
The night we fell on our knees

We fought all tears that came our way
And burned them down
In the bonfire we saw our face painted red
When we closed our eyes
Closed our eyes
When we closed our eyes
Closed our eyes

The way that I still write
About the wars we fought inside
Glasses of whisky rolling on the floor
Where we used to hide

Will you change your mind and run uphill like a bird?
Or soar uphill and see the world from the top
When you close your eyes
You close your eyes
When you close your eyes
You close your eyes
