Closed eyes for the last time; And i was sure i was ready for this. I was so ready for this, but i was wrong. Closed eyes for the last time. And i've seen the best of you And i've seen the worst of you, Yet when i wake to find blood in your eyes it brings me to my knees. When i wake to find blood in your eyes it brings me to my knees (to my knees). And i was sure i was ready for this; I was so ready for this. Frail hands apon white sheets, closed eyes -eternal sleep. All life lost to the bottle (only a matter of time). But you were dead long before you died. Closed eyes for the last time. You were dead long before you died. As a child your eyes brought me solace; Now a man i find the mother i knew has faded. The mother i knew has faded. And when she left us it changed us all (this place has lost all colour) This place has lost all colour. Upon my shoulders i carried you home. And when i wake to find blood in your eyes It brings me to my knees. This brought me to my knees.
