I Close My Eyes

I close my eyes to sleep
I close my eyes to shut out the light
I close my eyes, I welcome the night
I close my eyes and weep

I close my eyes to hide
I close my eyes so no one will see
I close my eyes, there's no one here but me
I close my eyes and drift on the tide

I close my eyes, I'm scared
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes, it will go away
I close my eyes and it's no longer there

I close my eyes to pain
I close my eyes and I am free
I close my eyes and I can be me
So I close my eyes again

And when it's time to open my eyes
I open them and dry up the tears
I open them and I try not to fear
That someone will read my eyes
