[Hook]
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
[Verse 1]
Maybe it's just the way we were
Maybe it's just the way I am
Maybe it's that feeling every time I got to hold your hand
I know that's cheesy, but I just want you to understand
The memories are there even if you forgot how we danced
Hurt feelings, numb nights, you know it's all the same
If love's an endless battle
Why'd we play it like a game?
It takes two to play, so how am I to blame?
I gave you everything, and all you did was fade away
You wanted love, you gave me hurt
And it hurt more to make it work
You were a chapter in my life, I was a line in yours
We went through hell and back, just for you to get me back
And after all of that, take a glance on where that left us at
So go ahead, pretend the rest of your life
Hide behind all of your makeup with those heels too tight
When you realize what you want is buried deep inside
I'll look deep into your eyes and say we'll be alright
[Hook]
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
[Verse 2]
When we split I almost lost it
Held our picture, dropped it
Tears I couldn't stop it
We're the epitome of toxic
Like the hurts not enough?
Don't tell me the things that you missed
Why you keep saying "loved" when you don't know what that is?
But, honestly, you're an addiction that no rehab can fix
And to be real I have no clue of what all of this is
'Cause one moment I'm done, then I don't know how to word it
'Cause what's broken can be fixed, but what's fixed isn't worth it
So I guess this is that moment where I say that goodbye
Maybe it's not the happy endings but the way that we tried
Not the drowning of the lies but the reasons we lied
The special moments where we saw that love in each others eyes
But go ahead, pretend what we had wasn't real
That these other guys could understand the way that you feel
When you realize what you want is buried deep inside
I'll look deep into your eyes
And say you'll be alright
[Hook]
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
[Outro]
Don't you dare look out your window
Darling, everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold on to this lullaby
Even when music's gone...
Gone...
