With my eyes wide shut. You move in circles I can't trace A perfect smile on a phantom face Your conversation's coded, sharp, and clean And I pretend to know exactly what you mean And I'll be the alibi you need (Need the alibi...) Plant the evidence and sow the seed (Oh, yeah) As long as I can watch your beautiful crime And pretend that you're all mine 'Cause I keep my eyes wide shut I got a feeling in my gut That this is all a dangerous game But I love the way you say my name (Say my name...) With my eyes wide shut. Been looking for a flaw in your design A crack in the surface, a crooked line But every single warning sign just feels like a dare And maybe I don't even really care (Say my name...) With my eyes wide shut (Feeling in my gut...) Yeah, my eyes are wide shut (Dangerous game...) I keep my eyes wide shut
