Oh, oh-oh-oh Oh, oh-oh-oh Always been heavy Life's bringing me down I'm a little unsteady Heart's beating too loud And I keep forgetting That things will always turn around Should be counting my blessings, I'm too busy stressing And hiding from all of my doubts It's only dark when your eyes are closed Tell yourself that you're all alone If you never look then you'll never know It's only dark when your eyes are closed Only feels like you're far away Hanging hopes onto better days If you never look then you'll never know It's only dark when your eyes are closed ♪ It's only dark when your eyes are closed ♪ I've been looking for shelter But it never feels safe Wishing I could remember It wasn't always this way Bottle up the good times And save 'em for a rainy day 'Cause when I'm falling to pieces, there's plenty of reasons For me not to feel so afraid It's only dark when your eyes are closed Tell yourself that you're all alone If you never look then you'll never know It's only dark when your eyes are closed Only feels like you're far away Hanging hopes onto better days If you never look then you'll never know It's only dark when your eyes are closed Oh, oh-oh-oh It's only dark when your eyes are closed Oh, oh-oh-oh It's only dark when your eyes are closed ♪ It's only dark when your eyes are closed ♪ It's only dark when your eyes are closed Oh, oh-oh-oh Oh, oh-oh-oh It's only dark when your eyes are closed Oh, oh-oh-oh Oh, oh-oh-oh It's only dark when your eyes are closed
