By Jenan Baltaji:
Close your eyes
Can you see clearer now?
When your head is filled with dreams
And your feet no longer touch the ground
When your heart laughs freely
When there is no longer reality
When chains vanish
Fear is banished
Heart no longer tarnished
Can you see clearer now?
When there are no longer rainy days
And you can see the sun’s rays
Where birds are free
We’ll fly you and me
And find neverland where we’ll live carelessly
Where time stands still,
Imaginary becomes real
Where our secrets fly away
No longer at bay
Where there are no more bad souls
Consuming our happiness
Where the sun breaks through the darkness
No more hungry souls,
Eating at our dream
Where those who once hurt us can’t be seen
Can you see clearer now?
Where the fog is lifted
Our minds have drifted
Where the world would be behind us
The raging fire leaving ashes and dust
As seeing made you blind
Cinder and darkness engulfed your eyes
So just close them
Where a whole new world
is what you will find
