Just Close Your Eyes

It seems like these minutes are getting longer Waiting for these lights to go down So clench your fist and hold your head up high We are not alone in this crowd I pray that this won't be the last time that our stories share the stage This is the reason we have come and why we'll never leave the same It's Your face that we wanna see, You're the notes in this melody In this song of life that You sing with me There were so many nights that I sang these words out into the open air I never knew that you would be the one who sang back into my ears Wake up, wake up now I never thought that I would see this day come to pass Wake up, wake up now If this is who I am I know I can't be sleeping It is not enough to be silent and never make a sound So move your feet, come on and be different, stand out It is not enough to be silent and never make a sound So move your feet, come on and be different just stand out There were so many nights that I sang these words out into the open air I never knew that you would be the one who sang back into my ears Wake up, wake up now I never thought that I would see this day come to pass Wake up, wake up now If this is who I am I know I can't be sleeping I need to hear your voice, I can't sing this on my own We're stronger when we stand as one I need to hear your voice, I can't sing this on my own We're stronger when we stand as one There were so many nights that we sang these words out into the open air We never knew that You would be the one who sang back into our ears Wake up, wake up now We never thought that we would see this day come to pass Wake up, wake up now If this is who we are we know we can't be sleeping

Go! If you close your eyes, your life, a naked truth revealed Dreams you never lived and scars never healed (scars never healed) In the darkness life will take you to the other side Find me waiting there, you'll see if you just close your eyes If you just close your eyes If you just close your eyes Deceived by my eyes And all I was told I should see Opinions not mine The person they taught me to be One night in the dark of vision of someone I know And out of the darkness I heard a voice say "I'm you" Inside of me a light was turned on Then I was alive If you close your eyes, your life a naked truth revealed Dreams you never lived and scars never healed (scars never healed) In the darkness life will take you to the other side Find me waiting there, you'll see if you just close your eyes Hearts uninspired Trapped inside somebody's dream Too close to the fire Yet cold and so numb with the pain But the fever has broken, and the river has run to the sea Washed to the ocean and saved by a voice inside me Inside of me a light was turned on Then I was alive If you close your eyes, your life a naked truth revealed Dreams you never lived and scars never healed (scars never healed) In the darkness life will take you to the other side Find me waiting there, you'll see if you just close your eyes Never thought I would be here, so high in the air This was my unanswered prayer Defined by another, so much wasted time Out of the darkness, each breath that I take will be mine If you close your eyes, your life, a naked truth revealed Dreams you never lived and scars never healed (scars never healed) In the darkness life will take you to the other side Find me waiting there, you'll see if you just close your eyes If you just close your eyes If you just close your eyes

Let forever take me in Now I know that I'm alive Give me something to forgive As the wicked come to life Show me where it all begins As I watch this world divide Hope will guide you to the end And there will be no last goodbye For all will live and die Leave it all behind Take away the dark inside And lead me to the light All will fade before your eyes As we turn the tide I will dream the dream to life Hold on, just hold on I will keep you here inside Just close your eyes Take the rebel from within Now I know that I'll survive Show me how the vain pretend As I watch this world collide Fate will guide you to the end And there will be no hope to hide For all will live and die Leave it all behind Take away the dark inside And lead me to the light All will fade before your eyes As we turn the tide I will dream the dream to life Hold on, just hold on I will keep you here inside Just close your eyes Leave it all behind Take away the dark inside And lead me to the light All will fade before your eyes As we turn the tide I will dream the dream to life Hold on, just hold on I will keep you here inside Hold on, just hold on I will keep you here inside Just close your eyes
