"Mach die Augen zu" [Close your eyes, lit. Close the eyes] is a punk song by Die Ärzte. It is the eighth track and the second single from their 1993 album Die Bestie in Menschengestalt. This song is about a relationship where one side wants to end the relationship and the other side desperately wants to keep pretending.
Translated excerpt:
Close your eyes and kiss me
I don't mind if you pretend
I forget what happened
And I hope and I dream
I wouldn't have lost you yet
