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

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.

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!

"I pray the Lord your soul to keep"...I don't belive she only ATTEMPTED suicide...

Cover art for Don't Close Your Eyes lyrics by Kix

"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

  • Steve (or whoever the main character is) is getting ready to leave and help the girl on the phone out

Wake up - Don't go to sleep

  • Doesn't hear anything back, tries to get a response (loud WAKE UP) pleads her not to go to sleep

I pray the lord your soul to keep

  • Realizes she's gone he recites that old prayer

Yay party music!
