When I Close My Eyes Lyrics

Verse 1 (Big B)

These doors are locked

I can’t seem to get out

I try to knock ‘em down

I even try to shout

no open ears to listen

no one seems hear

my mind going insane

and that is very clear

these streets are empty

no one walking by

I by myself

the only walking guy

thoughts go to and fro

am I dead or alive

do I bleed the same blood

can I see or am I blind

so much has changed

from being a little kid

no worries to panic

we ran free and did what we did

is it possible

that I’m just wandering in my head

no back ground and no one here

cause my dream is death

chorus 4x

when I close my eyes

it catches my attention

I know it’s a harsh world

that we live in

verse 2 (Big B)

To bad cause I’m awake

and still sitting

staring at the stars

and still wishing

its strange

cause its all true

any lies that pass

really isn’t you

distant my mind travels

and won’t brake

keep going and riding

to do what it takes

and even if I have to tear through gates

to go through

I know in my heart

that I can’t lose

I was taught

to think on my own

and even if I fell

to pick up and get back on

I can’t hide from my foes

I gotta stand up

and believe in what I know

and stand tough

chorus 4x

when I close my eyes

it catches my attention

I know it’s a harsh world

that we live in

verse 3 (Big B)

Its simple to the mind

whats going in the scene

paper chasers and other boys

trying to get that green

we can’t stop it

just sit back and see the cold world

notice how it is

and realize what you heard

remember whats been said

keep in your mind

dark grey clouds

its always been that time

searching for the meaning

but its to dark to see

open wide but still nothing

it’s a mystery

unsolved like a puzzle

that won’t fit

you can try but won’t succeed

it ain’t worth messing with

let it all be

push it aside

maybe this cold world

has no meaning in our eyes

chorus 4x

when I close my eyes

it catches my attention

I know it’s a harsh world

that we live in
