Close Your Eyes
Digital Daggers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll keep you safe, as safe as I can
When all of the elements around us
Have other plans
I pray we don't break, in unsteady hands

I swear of you call I will come
So quick I am at your command
As long as I live
As long as I'm breathing you will be safe
As long as were dreaming

Just close your eyes
Everything's gonna be just fine
You can peek on the other side

Just close your eyes
Everything's gonna be just fine
You can peek on the other side

Say you'll keep still, as still as can be
Don't get caught in the chaos surrounding us
Trust that we're coming out clean
Cause I'm on your side it's still you and me

When everything is falling to pieces
And nothing is quite as it seems
We will be safe
As long as were dreaming

Just close your eyes
Everything's gonna be just fine
You can peek on the other side

Just close your eyes
Everything's gonna be just fine
You can peek on the other side

We'll make it through this
I know that we will
You've got to be quick now
We're chasing up hill

I've got your hand tight in mine
Keep strong this time

Just close your eyes
Everything's gonna be just fine
You can peek on the other side

Just close your eyes




Everything's gonna be just fine
You can peek on the other side

I miss digital daggers :( i hope they are making more music soon because this band is pure perfection ❤️

@Viisaixia

I like how instead of 'alright' it's 'just fine', it gives a sense of calmness in knowing that not everything is gonna be the same ever again but you'll learn to live with it and you'll be fine, not worse or better but fine.

@sketchersam7837

@kurotani8270
