DON’T CLOSE YOUR EYES

“I pictured loads of different people, it’s not about anyone in particular, it’s more about a kind of picture of this girl. For some reason she has been brought up in a way that taught her to see the world as a bad thing, and she’s just shutting herself away from it instead of seeing the good things.”
Lyrics
She’s got a smile, it’s the wrong side of happy
Too many times she has been let down
I tried my best to reach her
But I guess I’m just too late now
She’s heard it all before
Too many times I’m sure
Girl you can’t ignore
The world outside your door
Don’t close your eyes
You’re missing a good thing
Don’t close your eyes
Stay on this ride
Just one more time
It’s too early to say goodbye
Don’t you say goodbye
Well, she sees the world through the eyes of her mother
There’s always room, room to criticize
Every man a potential lover
And every girl a demon in disguise
She thinks she knows your game
Like everyone’s the same
Like everyone’s to blame
Well baby it’s a shame
Don’t close your eyes
You’re missing a good thing
Don’t close your eyes
Stay on this ride
Just one more time
It’s too early to say goodbye
Don’t you say goodbye
Don’t you say goodbye
This poison in your veins
When will you let it out?
I wanna scream and shout
It’s not what life’s about
Don’t close your eyes
You’re missing a good thing
Don’t close your eyes
Stay on this ride
Just one more time
It’s too early to say goodbye
Oh oh, you know it’s not time
Don’t you, don’t you say goodbye
Can’t go now
Oh can’t go now
Don’t you say goodbye
No you can’t say goodbye
I know you can’t say goodbye
You can’t say goodbye
No you can’t leave
