Close My Eyes

If I could just close my eyes See just what I wanted to see It would be much easier to live this life, Thinking that it never really comes down to me Sometimes I wanna close my eyes So I can't see time while it's slipping away We're all walking a very fine line, Until reality is somehow thrown in our face Bury it deep and maybe you won't feel the pain But you can't let it go Down the line it will be back again If we could all close our eyes To all the things we know that are wrong We could live selfishly protected lives Not even think about what we could have done Say it's not there and maybe it will go away But the truth won't Down the line it will be back again And rather than exaime it I think we maybe I should handle it What good is it to close my eyes Or tell myself another lie Gotta get along somehow and sometimes the only way is to close my eyes Somtimes I have to close my eyes And let you think you can make a fool out of me But I set myself up each time By trusting you so openly But that's the way I wanna be, that's the way I wanna be
