I Keep My Eyes Shut
Solar Fake Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No hope, no fear, nothing around here
I care no more for things that I adore
You don't pray for God's help any more
I hate you and me and the whole world
Zero attraction for mankind's infection
Always taking shortcuts
I keep my eyes shut when you want me to see
I keep my mouth shut when I don't want to speak
And if you try to touch me and I run away
You get cross, as you cannot feel my pain
I keep my eyes shut when you want me to speak
I keep my mouth shut when I don't want to see
And if you ask my questions and expect an answer
You get cross, when I don't waste futile words on you
Polarising separation
Serving poisonous mushrooms for dinner
Trapping myself without your fervour
I'm changing victims every hour
