Don't Close Your Eyes
One went to the right to stay alive
The others they were sleeping cuz they made it home in time
A moment to decide where to ride
One was hoping he could make it so he set out for the stride
But they were working all the time
(Everybody talks about time)
Meet me after three
(Nobody ever talks to me)
And I will say goodbye
(You’ll never say goodbye to me)
I look out beside me am I still alive
Reach up fro my head but my fingers go inside
Warp your arms around me and pull me to the side
Don’t close your eyes
Momentary God, he’ll never give you life
What would one do if he had taken life
Take one’s life away, make him never play
Keep him in the nothing when there’s only time to think about it
Ripping right though
(Everything the rips, rips right through you)
Wake up from a dream
(Nobody every sleeps with me)
What does one see
(One sees a plastic melody)
No way to get free
(There’s always some way to get free)
I look out beside me am I still alive
Reach up fro my head but my fingers go inside
Warp your arms around me and pull me to the side
Don’t close your eyes
Leave me alone I don’t want to talk about it
How am I supposed to move on when everybody talks about it
Leave me alone I don’t want to talk about it
What did I say, I said I don’t - - - leave me alone
Fucked up in the head
I should be dead
How am I supposed to move on when everybody talks about it
Ripping right through
When I look at you, you tell me that it’s alright
But it’s not true, you lie
But I’m still alive
Don’t close your eyes
