I Close My Eyes

Like a blind man I lay awake
And I stare into the dark
All alone so no one can hear me cry

Fading light from a distant sun
I see myself at the end of the line
I close my eyes and slowly start to fade away

Why can’t you see the tears I cry
Why can’t you feel the way I feel
Why can’t you see the tears I cry
Why can’t you see the tears I cry
Why can’t you feel the way I feel
Why can’t you feel the way I feel
Why can’t you see the tears I cry

All the things I’ve done
And all the things I’ve said
It’s too late to say I’m sorry
All my life I’ve been so alone
I’ve been crying myself to sleep at night

In the mirror I can see the reflections
Of a lonely man who is fading away
Broken dreams and a broken soul
I say goodbye and I close my eyes
