"Close My Eyes" lyrics - BACKSTREET BOYS

My feet on the ground but I can't run
Drowning the noise inside my head
Who is this man that I've become?
It's killing me to see myself
How do you learn how to forgive
Deep down inside you can't forget
With all that I regret
I pray for the first time in a long time
The lies fade away

Finally I'm waking up
I feel like I can let you go
Say everything I wanted to say
I'm okay with being alone
When I close my eyes
When I close my eyes

I'm alive

I never was sure but now I am
This was the choice I had to make
Maybe I'll never understand
Sometimes you gotta make mistakes

Finally I'm waking up
I feel like I can let you go
Say everything I wanted to say
I'm okay with being alone
Finally I face it off
I feel like I can let it show
I know I can walk away
I'm okay with being alone
When I close my eyes (close my eyes, close my eyes)
When I close my eyes (close my eyes, close my eyes)
When I close my eyes

How do you know where to go when you walk away?

When I close my eyes

How do you know that you know when it's over?

I see for the first time in a long time
Believe me when I say,

Finally I'm waking up
I feel like I can let you go
Say everything I wanted to say
I'm okay with being alone
Finally I face it off
I feel like I can let it show
I know I can walk away
I'm okay with being alone
When I close my eyes (close my eyes, close my eyes)
When I close my eyes (close my eyes, close my eyes)

I'm alive

I'm alive
