Let it fall and hit the ground
Let it go
Your timing was so wrong
And I just want to be found
And oh
And I
Yeah, I've got the lines, I've got the lines
Oh it's brighter this time
This type of mine this disguise
Oh you talk, oh, to me
Well, nothing's gonna hurt me with my eyes shut
I can see through them
I can see through them
I am drawing pictures I'm evading
I will not use them
I will not use them
Again
And it starts again
You come over with your friends
I don't wanna talk to them
And all I really want
Is to start again
And oh
And I
Yeah, I've got the lines I've got the lines
Oh it's brighter this time
This type of mine
This disguise
Oh you talk, ooh, to me
Well, nothing's gonna hurt me with my eyes shut
I can see through them
I can see through them
I am drawing pictures I'm evading
I will not use them
I will not use them
'Cause I wanna be bigger than life
For you
For you
'Cause I wanna be bigger than life
For you
For you
And nothing's gonna hurt me with my eyes shut
I can see through them
I can see through them
And I am drawing pictures I'm evading
I will not use them
I will not use them
No, nothing's gonna hurt me with my eyes shut
I can see through them
I can see through them
"Eyes Shut" by Years & Years is an introspective and emotional song about the pain of heartbreak and the desire to move on. The singer is asking their former lover to throw their heart to them, to let go of the hurt and pain and move forward. They are questioning why the timing of their relationship was so wrong, and are hoping to find themselves again.
The singer then goes on to describe the power of closing their eyes and shutting out the world. They are able to see through the hurt and pain and are drawing pictures and evading negativity. They vow not to use the negative feelings to hurt themselves or others again.
The chorus, "Well, nothing's gonna hurt me with my eyes shut, I can see through them" is a powerful and resonant lyrical statement. Closing one's eyes can symbolize a retreat or surrender, but in this song it is a way of moving forward and seeing through the pain. The final lines, "No, nothing's gonna hurt me with my eyes shut, I can see through them" show that the singer has found a way to heal and move forward.
Line by Line Meaning
Throw your heart to me
Give me all of your love and emotions
Let it fall and hit the ground
Let go of your guard and allow yourself to be vulnerable
Let it go
Release your inhibitions and trust in the process
Your timing was so wrong
The timing for this relationship wasn't right
And I just want to be found
All I want is to be loved and appreciated by someone
Well, nothing's gonna hurt me with my eyes shut
I will protect myself from pain by shutting out the negativity
I can see through them
I have the ability to see through the facades and lies
I am drawing pictures I'm evading
I am creating a mental image to avoid dealing with reality
I will not use them
I won't rely on these defense mechanisms forever
And it starts again
The cycle of falling in love and getting hurt repeats
You come over with your friends
You surround yourself with people to hide from your loneliness
I don't wanna talk to them
I don't want to pretend that everything is fine
And all I really want
At the core of it, I just want love
'Cause I wanna be bigger than life
I want to be the best version of myself for the one I love
And nothing's gonna hurt me with my eyes shut
I won't let anyone hurt me if I stay closed off
No, nothing's gonna hurt me with my eyes shut
I will take control of my own happiness and well-being

This shit contagious
Doin' dope
This shit contagious
Doin' dope
DVRST (this shit contagious)
Going through a thang but I gotta snapback
Give it all to God, it's the pistol, put the crack back
Stayin' on my job dealin' with haters with a jab step
Dealin' with this mob, police watchin', studio phone tapped
Going through a thang but I gotta snapback
Give it all to God, it's the pistol, put the crack back
Stayin' on my job dealin' with haters wiht a jab step
Dealin' with this mob, police watchin', studio phone tapped
You best believe that I could see you from a mile away
Thought that my girl was down sleepin' with the enemy
The streets are dangerous, I could be dead any day
That's why I'm ridin' with my dawg smokin' plenty hay
This shit contagious, doin' dope
This shit contagious, doin' dope
This shit contagious, doin' dope
This shit contagious, doin' dope
This shit contagious, doin' dope
This shit contagious, doin' dope
This shit contagious, doin' dope and it's killin' me
Even though I know I hit the snow, is you feelin' me?
This shit contagious, doin' dope and it's killin' me
Even though I know I hit the snow, is you feelin' me?
Going through a thang but I gotta snapback
Give it all to God, it's the pistol, put the crack back
Stayin' on my job dealin' with haters with a jab step
Dealin' with this mob, police watchin', studio phone tapped
Going through a thang but I gotta snapback
Give it all to God, it's the pistol, put the crack back
Stayin' on my job, dealin' with haters wiht a jab step
Dealin' with this mob, police watchin', studio phone tapped
Going through a thang but I gotta snapback
Give it all to God, it's the pistol, put the crack back
Stayin' on my job dealin' with haters with a jab step
Dealin' with this mob, police watchin', studio phone tapped
This shit contagious

To everyone who's studying with this music:
Checklist:
• A bottle of water, at least 1liter. Your brain works better if it has enough water and drinking helps you to concentrate💧
• Your charger. You sometimes don't even notice that your device's battery is going down, so better have it plugged in all the time🔋
• Your headphones. You will be able to focus more with headphones, because it blocks background noises. Also, if it's a late night study session, you won't wake up anyone🎧
• a tea or coffee. Coffee keeps you awake, green or black tea can make you feel more awake as well.☕
• Your study/work stuff: your laptop/tablet/phone , a few pens, paper or whatever you need.⌨
•Anything else you could need, what about a heat pad, a blanket, a good lamp, your pet so you have a study buddy 🐈
Reminder: After an hour, you should stand up and walk a bit around. Better stop the music or put on different music for the break. Open your window, even if it's cold outside. Fresh air will make it better, trust me.
You could also lay your head down on your desk for ten minutes and listen to a podcast. Or, if you have to read a book, listen to the audiobook of it. You can also listen to the audiobook while doing another thing, that's even better than listening to music while reading the book. 📖
I hope y'all had a good day, if not, that's okay too. Remember to take care of yourself and try to get some sleep tonight 😴🧸
