The second track off the mixtape, in which Kim takes the role of a monstrous lover, who will not let the ones who fall for her get out alive. She suggests them to not oppose and close their eyes.
In an interview with OUT Magazine she commented the following:
“Close Your Eyes” started the mixtape,...
[Intro]
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
[Verse 1]
You take a drag, I take a sip
I want your legendary kiss
You know I got designer taste
And your design's too good to waste
When the beast comes out at night
Yeah, it always wants a bite
And I try, try to resist
But then the Devil always wins, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Time, time, time
Time to close your eyes (Close your eyes)
Time, time, time
Time to say goodnight (Say goodnight)
[Chorus]
I feel it coming on
You've got nowhere to run
There's no way you'll make it out alive
But when it's after dark
I'm gonna eat your heart
Don't try to fight it, just close your eyes
[Post-Chorus]
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
[Verse 2]
Go on and say, say your last words
Sometimes the best things kinda hurt
'Cause this is real, it's unrehearsed
My final touch, your fatal curse, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Time, time, time
Time to close your eyes (Close your eyes)
Time, time, time
Time to say goodnight (Say goodnight)
Say goodnight
[Chorus]
I feel it coming on
You've got nowhere to run
There's no way you'll make it out alive
But when it's after dark
I'm gonna eat your heart
Don't try to fight it, just close your eyes (Woo)
[Post-Chorus]
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes (Close your eyes)
Close your eyes (Close your eyes)
Close your eyes (Close your eyes)
Close your eyes
[Bridge]
Woo-ah
I feel it coming on
[Chorus]
I feel it coming on
You've got nowhere to run
There's no way you'll make it out alive
But when it's after dark (After dark)
I'm gonna eat your heart (Eat your heart)
Don't try to fight it, just close your eyes (Just close your eyes)
[Post-Chorus]
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes (Close your eyes)
Close your eyes (Close your eyes)
Close your eyes (Close your eyes)
[Outro]
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
