Close your eyes, child
Against the pain
If you don't look
Half of it can't be there
It won't overcome you
But the darkness is quarter of the pain
You lose some
To win some
Trust me just awhile
It won't overcome you
If you believe in sweet lies
That help you through the night
Maybe you've lost some of your soul
But you've lost it to find it
Or maybe we just want to believe that
But the hope we try to give ourselves
Is built on what we wish for
Mind instead of matter
We may turn air into truth
Or maybe we just want to believe it
I know I can't stand the way you tease me
The pulls that push me away
The pushes that pull me closer
I close my eyes and close the door
The key turns in my heart
We may each think we have a heart
But what we have is a door
Barred against the pain
Locking away our secrets
The key turns in my heart
If I could lie to you just one more time
I would make it the sweetest lie
So full of hope
With eyes closed
Overcoming the pain
I would pray for heaven's forgiveness
And that this wouldn't be harder
Then my eyes will say I never loved
You will want to believe it
The key breaks in my heart
