Love Song #5 [”Do You Close Your Eyes”] Lyrics

Turn clockwise in front of bathroom mirrors.
Chant soft gutturals, walking slow and careful.

Feel prongs against abdomen, sweat beading.
Spit while speaking. Spit your secrets on me.

Take everything as is and nothing more.
Be cautious of flattery and lashes.
And even more so with cut bottom lips.

Sell out. Overthink. Spend it all. Kill me.

You know I will pick blooms and walk with you.
You know I will cry when I think of you.
You know I will come when you want me to.
You know I will run away if things are real.
You know I have a place to keep your secret.

Do you make a wish when you kiss me?

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
