Shut My Eyes - Frida Amundsen

Written by：Frida Amundsen/Joakim Berg/Simon Nordberg

I have thoughts spinning in my head

Making me believe I'm mad

And memories that just won't make peace

Put my mind at ease

As a child I've been learning how

To pretend I'm doing fine

So no one would ever ask me why

But assume I was too shy

Hmmm

But it's hard to slip away

Hmmm

It keeps getting in my way

Shut my eyes

Telling lies

Turn around

I'm safe and sound

I don't know what else to say

I don't know what else to do

I shut my eyes

To make it through

Oh aaah

Oh aaah

Oh aaah

Oh aaah

I wish there was an easy way

But accept it day by day

I thought somehow I would

Forget every moment I've betrayed

As a child I've been learning now

Keep a distance from my heart

And to never let anybody in

It's a game I'll never win

Hmmm

But it's hard to slip away

Hmmm

It keeps getting in my way

Shut my eyes

Telling lies

Turn around

I'm safe and sound

I don't know what else to say

I don't know what else to do

I shut my eyes

To make it through

It's a shadow where my heart beats

In an empty haunted house

I know I have to go back there

And face it again

Oooooh

Oooooh

Oooooh

Oooooh

Shut my eyes

Telling lies

Shut my eyes

Telling lies

Oooooh

Oooooh

Oooooh

Oooooh
