It doesn't matter. It all makes sense for all I know. It's the same thing that has come that will go. I tried to speak up (Most of the time I was muzzled by a joke) But inspiration took a break and I choked. I said I'd give an eye for you, But that was just a lie. I said I'd be the catcher in the rye for you, But that was just a lie. I said I'd fight and die for you, But that was just a lie. I said I'd steal the sun from the sky for you, But that was just a lie. I just closed my eyes for you. It's just a cycle. Didn't we all find out long ago? From Hemingway to The Crystals, From de Sade to Sade. It doesn't matter. It all makes sense for all I know. Those starry eyes will glisten, Till the waves reach the cove. I said I'd give an eye for you, But that was just a lie. I said I'd be the catcher in the rye for you, But that was just a lie. I said I'd fight and die for you, But that was just a lie. I said I'd steal the sun from the sky for you, But that was just a lie. I just closed my eyes. I only closed my eyes. I just closed my eyes for you.
