Beneath Closed Eyes Lyrics

When you close your eyes you realise
That you're safe from the world on the outside
But the worse fear of all is the darkness
That lurks not on the out, but the inside

You're sleeping, you're dreaming, you're screaming
It's creepy, it's deepening unbelieving
You're twisting, you're turning, you're bending
It's frightening and scaring, never ending
You're falling, you're calling and shouting

And trying to wake, no mistake
You're spinning, you're drifting, you're loosing
This battle to wake, you can't wait

You're locked in, you're blocked in, you're tied down
You're trying to escape, from mind rape
You're crawling, then walking, then running
From what's deep inside your own mind
You reach out for crying out
Won't someone drag me out
No one's there, no one cares
As you're pulled down much deeper, it's darker
Nothing is bright, eyelides shut tight

You're spinning around and then you fall down
And the sweat starts to pour
And it screams as it hits the ground
You fall off the edge and you jump up in bed
And the bottom draws near and you scream in fear

Don't be afraid
I'll always be there
To catch you when you fall
Close your eyes

You're sleeping, you're dreaming, you're screaming
It's creepy, it's deepening unbelieving
You're twisting, you're turning, you're bending
It's frightening and scaring, never ending
When you close your eyes you realise
That you're safe from the world on the outside
But the worse fear of all is the darkness
That lurks not on the out, but the inside
