Don't Close Your Eyes Lyrics
What you doing out in the night time
Why'd ya call me on the phone
Your mama can't solve your problem
When's daddy ever get home
So you did your little move and cried
In the middle of the suicide
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby
There's no one there to hold you
No one hears your scream
You live life up and down now
Your nightmares are your dreams
I know it's lonely when your hanging round
Don't you take it falling down no no
Hold on hold on tight
I'll make everything all right
Wake up don't go asleep
I'll pray the lord
Your soul to keep
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby
Why'd ya call me on the phone
Your mama can't solve your problem
When's daddy ever get home
In the middle of the suicide
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby
No one hears your scream
You live life up and down now
Your nightmares are your dreams
Don't you take it falling down no no
I'll make everything all right
Wake up don't go asleep
I'll pray the lord
Your soul to keep
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby
Don't close your eyes
Don't sing your last lullaby

It's about a guy trying to talk a girl out of killing herself. It should be depressing in theory, but it's actually a very powerful and uplifting song.
awesome song, definatly needs more comments! a true classic, helps you through tough stuff!
This songs is an anti-suicide song.
I was criminally confined by a psycho in 1999 for about 7 months, who tried to kill me but I got away. He played this song for me several times. True story!
okay this song might not be new at all but it rocks. i havent heard it in years cause i couldnt think of who song it but this song is one of many others that i love!
the video is pretty darn good too!
pretty sure this song is about a girl who attempts suicide and calls the guy while she's dying. pretty depressing.
"I pray the Lord your soul to keep"...I don't belive she only ATTEMPTED suicide...
"As I lay down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take"
She is still alive, just in need of friendship and prayers that she can see that life is worth living
So the main character definitely dies while on the phone with other main character right? Hold on - Hold on tight I'll make everything all right
Wake up - Don't go to sleep
I pray the lord your soul to keep
Yay party music!
