Close My Eyes

I'm tired of waiting for a better day But I'm scared, I'm lazy and nothing's gonna change The blood's still fresh on the ground But I'm far and I'm safe and I will not make a sound Confession to a lesser crime But I'll never do the time 'Cause I was studying what to say Something is calling in the night But I'm keeping still beside the light I know you're gonna come around and stand by me But I'm tired of standing while the world's dissolving Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes And it's almost alright If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter In my mind, in my mind, in my mind I want to choose the right But you know it's hard enough to breathe The photograph is always new But I seen that same headline And I got to dance to keep from crying My head is tired, my eyes are weak My heart is saying that I can't speak I know you're gonna come around and stand by me But I'm tired of standing while the world's desolving Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes And it's almost alright If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter In my mind, in my mind, in my mind I want to choose the right But you know it's hard enough to breathe Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes And it's almost alright If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter In my mind, in my mind, in my mind I want to choose the right But you know it's hard enough to breathe Close my eyes, close my eyes, close my eyes And it's almost alright If you can understand then come in close and hold me tighter In my mind, in my mind, in my mind I want to choose the right But you know it's hard enough to breathe
