Close Your Eyes
Breathing Theory Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And all she wanted was to know that you were there
And all she needed was to feel you in the air
And nothing ever seems to take away her pain
Cause you can never show her just how to escape

Close your eyes and hold on, it is almost gone
Soon the storm sure will break from this dream you will wake
Is it over?

And all I can see is the selfishness in me
Pushing away every reason that I breathe
Questioning how could I have been so blind
To walk away from all the blessings in my life

Close your eyes and hold on, it is almost gone
Soon the storm sure will break from this dream you will wake
Is it over?

Close your eyes and hold on, it is almost gone
Soon the storm sure will break from this dream you will wake
Is it over?

Close your eyes and hold on, it is almost gone
Soon the storm sure will break from this dream you will wake
Is it over?

Overall Meaning

In Breathing Theory's song Close Your Eyes, the lyrics depict the struggle of two individuals dealing with their inner demons. The first verse talks about one person who is seeking comfort and assurance from another, someone who they trust and need by their side. However, despite the other person's presence, the pain still lingers, and there seems to be no easy way out. They both feel trapped, and the second person questions their actions that have pushed away the blessings in their life. It is as if they are looking back and regretting their decisions, wondering how they could have been so blind.


The chorus, 'Close your eyes and hold on, it is almost gone,' is like a plea for solace and hope, that the storm that their lives have become will end. It is an encouragement to hold on, to endure the pain, and eventually, it will pass. The repetition of this line implies that it is a reminder for both individuals, that they need to hang in there and not give up, even when things get rough.


In conclusion, Close Your Eyes is an emotional and deep song that explores the innermost feelings of two individuals. They are coming to terms with their mistakes and acknowledging their faults, but at the same time, they are hoping for a better future, a brighter day when the storm will break.


Line by Line Meaning

And all she wanted was to know that you were there
She just wanted to feel your presence, to know that you care


And all she needed was to feel you in the air
She needed to sense your love, to feel that you're always there


And nothing ever seems to take away her pain
No matter what she tries, her pain still remains


Cause you can never show her just how to escape
You can't teach her how to run from her pain or her fate


And all I can see is the selfishness in me
I realize my own selfishness, and how it's caused me to flee


Pushing away every reason that I breathe
I've been ignoring the very things that keep me alive and breathe


Questioning how could I have been so blind
Wondering how I could have been so unaware and unkind


To walk away from all the blessings in my life
To have ignored all the good things in my life and constant strife


Close your eyes and hold on, it is almost gone
Keep holding on, the storm is almost over, don't move on


Soon the storm sure will break from this dream you will wake
The storm will end, you'll wake from the dream that's so hard to shake


Is it over?
Is the storm finally over?
