Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Triggers pop, images race through your mind; no one would
believe how life could be so unkind
It was a bad one, too vivid a nightmare; having a good day
then the past gives me a good scare
He tells me to trust him, I’ve heard that before; but I’ve
had a little, all I know is I want me some more
A day is two weeks, she hides and silently cries; enough
suffering yesterday, time to open your eyes
Forty plus years leave a mark on your soul; so close to the
finish line, scared to try to score a goal
Happy endings, they exist in fairy tales; every other time she
rode that train it went off of the rails
Was it the engineer, or was it just a bad design? Every time
I felt things were right I’d wind up cryin’
Winners don’t quit because of a few failed tries; it’s time
to go with a new day and open your eyes
Cause walking around with your eyes closed; will never go
the way that you had originally supposed
You miss the things in life that are so astounding, plowing ahead
with no sense where you’re bounding
Banging off of who knows what, you scream in pain; why pass
up sunny skies to cry alone in the rain?
Those things aren’t you, no you’re far too wise; to see where
you’re headed baby open your eyes
Tell me what’s the first thing that you see? You know who
will be standing there? Baby it’s me!
Wrapped around you like a blanket when it’s cold; laughing
and snuggling together as we grow old
Building dreams and bringing fantasies to fruition; this is
the only way to improve your condition
Forget the problems you endured, heartaches and lies; enjoy
my love simple and true, open your eyes
