Close My Eyes
FAT PROP Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When things aren't as they seem
What do you think of
in your mind?
I just don't understand you
I can't stand it any more
too much pain
I can't stand it any more
too much pain

Close my eyes!
Let me tell myself
I never runaway
and I never regret
Open my heart
I just wanna do
what has to be done
Close my eyes!
Close my eyes!
Let me tell myself
I never runaway
and I never regret
Hey you're not alone,
when will you notice
these feelings?
When things aren't as they seem
What do you think of
in your mind?
I just don't understand you
Don't try to push me any further
Does anything wait for me
after all this sorrow?
Saying goodbye
to the whole wide world
I just wanna go far away
Don't need to carry on anymore
Close my eyes!
Let me tell myself
I never runaway
and I never regret
Open my heart
I just wanna do
what has to be done
Close my eyes!
Close my eyes!
Let me tell myself
I never runaway
and I never regret
We'll be together on nights
we lie awake
Remember darkness
won't last forever

Close my eyes!
Let me tell myself
I never runaway
and I never regret
Open my heart
I just wanna do
what has to be done
Close my eyes!
Close my eyes!
Let me tell myself
I never runaway
and I never regret

It goes on together
The light's gonna shine someday
