Lyrics Don't Close Your Eyes On Me - The Crimea

Don't Close Your Eyes On Me

When the lights go out in the land of the free,
all that I have is a need, all that I need is unclear to me.
And it’s all downhill once you learn how kids are made,
even the dogs on the street have a little more dignity.
Hell
is a frozen lake
breaking up in spring,
changes everything.
Don’t close your eyes on me.
You can dream,
but everyday wake up again.
Don’t slip away from me,
you can dream
but you can’t have everything.
when you find yourself beyond the point of no return,
think of the chances you missed, think of the years you were out of it.
As the Limbo bar gets lower and there’s less Limboists.
Disaster stands on my doorstep, a Lucky Strike in her white lips.
Hell
is a crowded room.
Heaven’s just got you
naked on all fours.
Don’t close your eyes on me.
You can dream,
but everyday wake up again.
Don’t slip away from me,
you can dream
but you can’t have everything.
Through it all, never surrender.
And through it all, I’ll never surrender.
And you can’t stand up anymore.
Never surrender.
Don’t close your eyes on me.
You can dream,
but you can’t have everything.
