I opened my eyes to the soft lullaby
And I found you've gone away
Birds died in the yard through the night
I grabbed some cash and called out for heaven
I burned my song when it was halfway done
And gathered the ashes into an empty glass
With some ice and liquor, I drank it up
I'm afraid it's time to say goodbye
Time to close my sorry heart
Flowers bloomed everywhere overnight
I grabbed some change and dialed
Then I just hung it up
Tears fell all night and filled the glass
You begged me for denial but I denied you it
It's time to close my mind
It's time to close
It's time to close my mind
It's time to close
