Close Your Eyes Lyrics
Lost the things that you thought,
you would never miss.
Let them out, miss them while they're gone
But there's memories down here,
that will always live.
And they can't take them away, so they won't.
Open this window, let the sickness out.
Sleep softly and breathe again.
If there's a way, then it'll find you and help you out.
You're like a circle, there's no start and no end.
Close your eyes, you might see something beautiful
Cause It’s not all pitch-black in the back of your mind
So close your eyes, you might see something prettier
You pick a dream right out of the night
And change I wish for I will, cause it’s gonna work.
You can do this, it's your life
And if you are unhappy about something, stop jerking about.
Follow the clouds and dive right in
Open this window, just let the wind blow in
And let it grab you and calm you down.
And if there is no way then find a way,
Don’t go down the easy way,
And don’t let any of them bastards hold you down.
Close your eyes, you might see something beautiful
Cause it’s not all pitch-black in the back of your mind
So close your eyes, you might see something prettier
So pick a dream right out of the night
Welcome to the show,
Cause you’re following the man, with the million dollar plan
And all the dreams are gone if you let them go.
Yeah all the dreams you win, if you dare to make it so
If you dare to make it so
You lost the things that you thought you would never miss.
You let them out, miss them while they’re gone
But there’s memories down here and they will always live down here
No, they can't take them away, so they won’t
Close your eyes, you might see something beautiful
It’s not all pitch-black in the back of your mind
So close your eyes, you might see something prettier
You pick your dream right out of the night
you would never miss.
Let them out, miss them while they're gone
But there's memories down here,
that will always live.
And they can't take them away, so they won't.
Open this window, let the sickness out.
Sleep softly and breathe again.
If there's a way, then it'll find you and help you out.
You're like a circle, there's no start and no end.
Cause It’s not all pitch-black in the back of your mind
So close your eyes, you might see something prettier
You pick a dream right out of the night
You can do this, it's your life
And if you are unhappy about something, stop jerking about.
Follow the clouds and dive right in
And let it grab you and calm you down.
And if there is no way then find a way,
Don’t go down the easy way,
And don’t let any of them bastards hold you down.
Cause it’s not all pitch-black in the back of your mind
So close your eyes, you might see something prettier
So pick a dream right out of the night
Cause you’re following the man, with the million dollar plan
And all the dreams are gone if you let them go.
Yeah all the dreams you win, if you dare to make it so
If you dare to make it so
You let them out, miss them while they’re gone
But there’s memories down here and they will always live down here
No, they can't take them away, so they won’t
It’s not all pitch-black in the back of your mind
So close your eyes, you might see something prettier
You pick your dream right out of the night

every time I hear this song I think of my sister who lives with a different family. I love her very very much, but we don't get to see each other often. it reminds me of her because she has had a tuff time, and her family is no help, she feels out of place among them. they laugh at her and her dreams, our dreams. she's really close to breaking again. a lot of times, i'm on the phone, trying to "dry up her tears" with only my voice, cuz I can't be there to comfort her.
I always want her to know that no matter how hard it gets, it'll get better. that any dream or wish she has will come true, all she has to do is follow. and that it's not all bad. and to never give up.
