Close My Eyes
I'm tired of waiting for a better day
But I'm scared, I'm lazy and nothing's gonna change
The blood's still fresh on the ground
But I'm far and I'm safe and I will not make a sound
Confession to a lesser crime
But I'll never do the time
'Cause I was studying what to say
Something is calling in the night
But I'm keeping still beside the light
I know you're gonna come around and stand by me
But I'm tired of standing while the world's dissolving
Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes
And it's almost alright
If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter
In my mind, in my mind, in my mind
I want to choose the right
But you know it's hard enough to breathe
The photograph is always new
But I seen that same headline
And I got to dance to keep from crying
My head is tired, my eyes are weak
My heart is saying that I can't speak
I know you're gonna come around and stand by me
But I'm tired of standing while the world's desolving
Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes
And it's almost alright
If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter
In my mind, in my mind, in my mind
I want to choose the right
But you know it's hard enough to breathe
Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes
And it's almost alright
If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter
In my mind, in my mind, in my mind
I want to choose the right
But you know it's hard enough to breathe
Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes
And it's almost alright
If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter
In my mind, in my mind, in my mind
I want to choose the right
But you know it's hard enough to breathe
But I'm scared, I'm lazy and nothing's gonna change
The blood's still fresh on the ground
But I'm far and I'm safe and I will not make a sound
Confession to a lesser crime
But I'll never do the time
'Cause I was studying what to say
Something is calling in the night
But I'm keeping still beside the light
I know you're gonna come around and stand by me
But I'm tired of standing while the world's dissolving
Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes
And it's almost alright
If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter
In my mind, in my mind, in my mind
I want to choose the right
But you know it's hard enough to breathe
The photograph is always new
But I seen that same headline
And I got to dance to keep from crying
My head is tired, my eyes are weak
My heart is saying that I can't speak
I know you're gonna come around and stand by me
But I'm tired of standing while the world's desolving
Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes
And it's almost alright
If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter
In my mind, in my mind, in my mind
I want to choose the right
But you know it's hard enough to breathe
Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes
And it's almost alright
If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter
In my mind, in my mind, in my mind
I want to choose the right
But you know it's hard enough to breathe
Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes
And it's almost alright
If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter
In my mind, in my mind, in my mind
I want to choose the right
But you know it's hard enough to breathe
