Close Your Eyes

by Mighty Violets

/

  • Streaming + Download

    Includes high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more. Paying supporters also get unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app.

    I've released a few singles from this album and have had them reviewed. Most people said they found the vocal mix odd and the arrangements a bit old-fashioned. So I release the album for free to those that receive the link. Please enjoy this weird music from my heart.

Strange Star 03:26
lyrics
buy track
It was over Way way before it had begun I saw it coming I saw it coming with the setting sun You walked up to me I couldn't remember what you had just said I started something You started something up in my head Don't look around There's a strange star in the sky tonight Don't look around there's a strange one Don't look around There's a strange star in the sky tonight Don't look around there's a strange one In the night sky We took lifetimes We went there just about every day When it was over We left behind the things we could not say And I never want to think about it now Those sounds move through me like so many waves I'll spend the rest of my life Just trying to darken out those strange days Don't look around There's a strange star in the sky tonight Don't look around there's a strange one Don't look around There's a strange star in the sky tonight Don't look around there's a strange one In the night sky Don't look around There's a strange star in the sky tonight Don't look around there's a strange one Don't look around There's a strange star in the sky tonight Don't look around there's a strange one In the night sky Now If I saw you I don't know what it is I would say You had is coming You had it coming to you anyway Don't look around There's a strange star in the sky tonight Don't look around there's a strange one Don't look around There's a strange star in the sky tonight Don't look around there's a strange one In the night sky Don't look around There's a strange star in the sky tonight Don't look around there's a strange one Don't look around There's a strange star in the sky tonight Don't look around there's a strange one In the night sky

All Is Lost 03:50
lyrics
buy track
I live in hope Also in fear Will you ever be mine again I know I lied I'm dead inside But I guess that I always was What you hear What you hear is my echo What you see What you see is my shadow Twisted and dark Hidden underground I am the roots of the forgotten Turn away Turn away It's breaking down, so you think that it's rotten What you hear What you hear is my echo What you see What you see is my shadow All is lost All is lost, all is gone All is lost All is lost, all is gone All is lost All is lost, all is gone All is lost To begin anew

Blue Violets 03:20
lyrics

Blue Violets Oh my heart Give me the strength to try again Oh Blue Violets Oh my heart Give me the strength to try again I tell my secrets to her silent leaves Only the violet knows why my poor heart grieves Why my poor heart grieves Yellow Violets Here before my past Take a few and leave a few Dry them so they last Dry them so they last I tell my secrets to her silent leaves Only the violet knows why my poor heart grieves Why my poor heart grieves White Violets So sweet and true Just turn and pass them by But what else could I do I couldn’t tell you My Troubled mind But I should know We can’t always understand What we find

Overview 03:19
lyrics
buy track
Hanging over the dark hanging over the Tiny tiny stars in all the velvet black I’ll be different now when it’s time to go back How was I to know when I left this world in disarray (and now it draws me near) That I would see us all as one Steady and clear What if all I ever needed was the overview? 240 miles up over you And I feel so found just looking out at you At the overview I want to believe it’s not just a dream The earth suspended as the human mind And I’d be stationed up there Moving through time If I could just see our consciously evolving sphere From up in space today All this haunted longing might just fade away Maybe all I ever needed was the overview 240 miles up over you And I feel so lost when I’m apart from you Oh I feel so lost but I feel so found So alone but I’m on my way So alone but I’m on my way So alone but I’m on my way So alone So alone So alone But I’m on my way

Empty As the Night 03:19
lyrics
buy track
We all are one though we’re apart I know you never really saw that I don’t think anyone can make it right Now we’re empty, as the night I’m not enough though I am everything You’re not enough, you’re the whole world I tried so hard to reach you, I don’t know why Now we’re empty, as the sky Are you glad that I’m alone? I’m glad you could show me something Now I rest upon this eternal place Empty as the dark of space Gone with the promises now Gone with the rain Though You saw nothingness there There does remain Within this darkness Every kind of light Empty as, Empty as, Empty as The night

Erasing You 03:51
lyrics
buy track
There’s another me, baby There’s another you Standing on the precipice now If I could find a way To go Back today I’d cut you from this timeline somehow I’d avoid the mistakes I’d preserve my basic fate It’s only you I would erase Wake up alone A trace of grace you’ve never known Is it a dream To be caught somehow? You’ll never find it again I took it back from you Because I’m a time traveler now Oh I avoided mistakes I preserved my basic fate It’s only you I did erase Here we are today, baby The past and present entwine Within this moment That we see I will unravel those threads Get you out of my head forever You never deserved To meet me, to meet me, to meet me, to meet me Yeah

On the way, I missed the beauty of the day I missed everything around me All this time, keeping you in my mind I now promise to release you Think about it, can you do without it Think about it, you can do without it Think about it, you can do without it I can do without it too I go in circles, take me all the way around I come back to the center again Can you try, can you leave the past behind Can you promise to release me too Think about it, can you do without it Think about it, you can do without it Think about it, you can do without it I can do without it too I'm calling it back to me I'm calling it back to me I'm calling it back to me I'm calling it back to me I'm calling it back to me I'm calling it back to me I'm calling it back to me, back to me, back to you Call it back too

Close Your Eyes 03:55
lyrics
buy track
Close your eyes It's gonna hurt a little It's not the end Can you pretend you're somewhere else Where you feel safe Take your time Maybe you learn the hard way Just like me The Sweetest apple still has to fall From the Tree I've watched you grow I've grown you up from a seed I'm glad you know I've grown you up To be Free It's hard to watch you struggle Though you'll be fine It's hard to watch you suffer Son of mine Watch your step You're gonna go your own way Through the trees On windy days you'll hear my voice Upon the breeze I'll always be beside you Even when you're alone My voice will stay around you When you're old You've got a mother's love now To share You're love to spread around you Everywhere Close your eyes It's gonna hurt a little It's not the end Can you pretend you're somewhere else Where you feel safe
