pain - close my eyes lyrics

can't see faith through the tears
of my swollen eyes
i try to dry
i pretend it's not as bad as it seems... what a lie

how can we be so blind
every time a child dies
people are starving
rain forests are falling
the bombs are dropping from the sky

i don't know why - it sticks in my head
i close my eyes - and it hurts me so bad
i don't know why - it sticks in my head
i close my eyes - i close my eyes

i close my eyes

i look away from this misery
and i hope the problem will disappear

but it still hurts me everytime a child dies
it's like a knife you stab in my heart
and twist it, twist it, twist it around

i don't know why - it sticks in my head
i close my eyes - and it hurts me so bad
i don't know why - it sticks in my head
i close my eyes - i close my eyes
