Close Your Eyes - Matthew Ryan

It took a week full of Mondays

And every Monday it rained

I fought the law and the dull

And got nothing but pain

Got twisted up and low

A little insane

I watched everything I love

Circle the drain

Close your eyes

Then you’ll see

It was all

Just a dream

I bought a car in Wilmington

I said goodbye to my friends

I said «things will be different

When I see you again»

Well we hugged and talked

The smallest talk

It started raining in the rear-view

As they shuffled off

Close your eyes

Then you’ll see

It was all

Just a dream

Now there’s a lot of bodies

By the side of the road

Careful who’s driving

You don’t wanna be a ghost

Now it won’t always be easy

But it won’t always be hard

Just listen to the cracks

In your broken heart

Close your eyes

Then you’ll see

It was all

Just a dream

Home is where the hurt is

So I’m writing this down

Don’t think I didn’t love you

I just didn’t wanna drown
