Curtains
Oh, draw the blinds
We can shut out the night
Oh, pull up the blankets
Pull the blankets up tight

And there are angels on our curtains
They keep the outside out
And there are lions on our curtains
They lick their wounds
They lick their doubt

We watch them float away
Along with our memories of the day

And there are angels on our curtains
They keep the outside out
And there are lions on our curtains
They lick their wounds
They lick their doubt

They lick their doubt
(Close your eyes)
(Close your eyes)
(Pull the blankets on tight)
(Go to sleep)
(In your dreams) We can shut out the night
(In your dreams) Pull the blankets on tight
They lick their wounds
They lick their doubt
(We can shut out the night)
(In your dreams)
Close your eyes
Go to sleep
