I Close My Eyes Songtext
von Covenant

In heat of the moment
In the eye of the storm
Oh, when the high tide turns around
I tread water waiting to be found

In the dream of the shepherd
In the blood on the thorn
Oh, when the warships run aground
I breed monsters, feeding on the drowned

In the daze of confusion
In the glare of the glow
Oh, when the demon comes unbound
I dive under, drowning out the sound

In the noise of the silence
In the force of the blow
Oh, when the towers tumble down
I sink further, going underground

I seek sanctuary
Take me in
Keep me safe


I seek sanctuary
Take my sins
Keep my faith

Squaring circles, cutting ice
Hacking numbers, telling lies
Dreaming nightmares, waking up
Twisting, shouting, dying twice
Little poems from the skies
Fading daydreams falling down
Falling down

In the heat of the moment
In the eye of the storm
Oh, when the high tide turns around
I tread water waiting to be found

In the dream of the shepherd
In the blood on the thorn
Oh, when the warships run aground
I breed monsters, feeding on the drowned

In the daze of confusion
In the glare of the glow
Oh, when the demon comes unbound
I dive under, drowning out the sound


In the noise of the silence
In the force of the blow
Oh, when the towers tumble down
I sink further, going underground

I sanctuary
Take me in
Keep me safe

I seek sanctuary
Take the sins
Keep my faith

Squaring circles, cutting ice
Hacking numbers, telling lies
Dreaming nightmares, waking up
Twisting, shouting, dying twice
Little poems from the skies
Fading daydreams falling down
Falling down

Can′t keep the pace, these demons days
Are piling up like falling towers everywhere
Could regret or try to forget the little things
That bind my mind to my memories
But I don't know that down below the pain remains
In different shapes and shades

I need to sleep
I have to stop and catch my breath
And view the world with my eyes closed
I close my eyes
I close my eyes
I close my eye
