Close My Eyes

I close my eyes and then I count to ten

Shake some hands and then I feel ashamed

I'm in control but I am out of time

I've lost the need for any desire, any desire

I had a vision but it slipped away

Inherit goodness, it is here to stay

It's not about us anymore

It's not about us, 'bout us anymore

I close my eyes and then I count to ten

I open them up and I shut them again

Look at the crowd and then forget my parts

Back to memory and then back to the start, back to the start

I'm back to the stuff that made us all

Back to reality, back to fuck all

It's not about us anymore

It's not about us, 'bout us anymore

Close my eyes and then I count to ten

Sign some papers and then they are my friends

Attempt to make up and my skin aches

Not even massage can make my body straight, my body straight

Count to ten and then pretend I'm home

Just a job I get well paid for

It's not about us anymore

It's not about us, 'bout us anymore

I close my eyes, I close my eyes

I close my eyes, I close my eyes
