Hands Over Eyes
[Verse 1]
Just up the stairs in your closet lies a
Skeleton nobody knows
It's buried under the old oak floor
It shadows you just like a ghost
You hear it calling, don't you
Feel it haunting?
[Chorus]
Your skin shivers
Your lips quiver
Under pressure
Your sorrow's in the fold
So you don't have to hide
Hands over eyes
Your eyes
[Verse 2]
Shut all the windows and lock the doors
But that won't keep the fire out
You built a castle with paper walls
And now it's burning to the ground
The smoke is rising
Don't you see it coming in
[Chorus]
Your skin shivers
Your lips quiver
Under pressure
Your sorrow's in the fold
So you don't have to hide
Hands over eyes
[Bridge]
With your lantern in the dark
Face the trembling in your heart
[Chorus]
Your skin shivers
Your lips quiver
Under pressure
Your sorrow's in the fold
So you don't have to hide
Hands over eyes
Don't have to hide
Hands over eyes
