Close Your Eyes
Words and Music by Christopher White


You are requested, to close the eyes,

We are invested, in making you realize,

That you don’t have to see to be free,

And not only the blind find tyranny.


Close your mouth, it’s never helped you before,

With words leaking out, you’re an open door,

And the rabbits will come inside and eat your furniture,

You’d better draw the bridge, and sweep the floor.


Close your eyes, and see the sky will open wide

You have to close your eyes, to have an open mind.

Have a little faith and the earth will feed your soul,

The more you observe, the less you know,

Close your eyes.


Your ears are devices, that exist to tell you lies,

The sound you hear entices you to listen to advice,

But no one knows but you what is true,

Seal your ears with wax, and cotton, and glue.


Close your eyes, and see the sky will open wide

You have to close your eyes, to have an open mind.

Have a little faith and the earth will feed your soul,

The more you observe, the less you know,

Close your eyes.
