All this life shrouded in a veil Of deception in association But now I will witness thee With unblinding open eyes Judas I bury you in your own blood You only held me down from what I was suppose to be Ascend above the ashes of the world I once knew

Your sleeping heart You've been deep in a coma But I stood right here When you thought there was no one I was still right here You were scared, but I told ya Open up your eyes

Bittersweet goodbye and one last kiss Cry while you watch me bleeding It's safe to say that ignorance is bliss I cant believe it's come to this Fear the lives we're leading Open your eyes, what have you done? I've been back, forth stuck yet spun Too

When the fever comes To take care of my soul And there's no one else Yes there's no one else Open up your eyes I've got nothing to say There's no one else but us In this little place Moving like the rain

Until I'm back in your arms again I'll be out here on the wind Through the middle of the night unknown I'm an asphalt cowboy Born to run underneath the stars Pay no mind to my lonely heart The sun has opened up my eyes

Tell the truth. The whole world is shaking now. Can't you feel it? A new dawn is breaking now. Can't you see it? It doesn't matter just who you are, Or where you're going or been. Open your eyes and look into your heart. Tell me who's been fooling you?

I can see the stars From America So open your eyes and see The way our horizons meet And all of the lights will lead Into the night with me And I know these scars will bleed But both of our hearts believe All of these stars will guide us home

Feel better if you just lie You got leaving in your eyes Read you like an open book Standing on the edge but you can't look down Sure is quiet, sky's too blue You ain't hiding but I can't find you Sheets on the line so, nothing's changed Guess it's

(Open your eyes before you die) We're here because of you We're here because you were there We've arrived from every corner of the planet to this nation To seek the fulfillment of a promise of America We were promised a better life in our home

Cause' I don't know, But that's the price, You have to pay. One of these good ole days, One of these good ole days! Open your eyes, So you can see, Little girl, That you hurt me,
