If You Believe Lyrics

Cover art for If You Believe lyrics by Our Lady Peace

I sort of agree with shameless. I think there's a girl who is fed up with her life, her friends, her way of looking at things. And someone comes along, and shows her a new way to live. However,

'You wanted to fly, you can't close your eyes.'

She's unwilling to let go of what is comfortable to her, and she thus can't accept this new way of life being offered to her. So she'll always stay where she is, because she 'can't close her eyes'
