Open My Eyes

[Verse 1]

I took a beating; Hell, I took some bad ones

Just trying to hold this thing straight

It's hard work believing

You win some, you lose some

While watching your work go to waste

Don't know when to start running

Don't know if I'm done in

Or whether to pull you in tight

When you're this deep in something

Can't be certain what's coming

But I got this cold feeling I'm right

[Chorus]

So if you know something I don't

Won't you please, please open my eyes

Open my eyes

Open my eyes

[Verse 2]

I dragged some dirt in, I know that we both did

We tracked it all over the floor

From dancing turning to pacing and worrying

There's wear deep in every board

There were two, now there's one

Down from so much to none

At some point somebody got tired

Is it easy for some to know what's to be done

To make it or only keep trying?

[Chorus]

Well, if you know something I don't

Won't you please, please open my eyes

Open my eyes

Open my eyes

[Bridge]

I would stare at myself in the mirror

If I thought that I had any answers

Hey, I'm finding my way just by feel here

Only so far we can see clear

[Chorus]

So if you know something I don't

If you know something I don't

Won't you please, please open my eyes

Open my eyes

Open my eyes

Open my eyes

Open my eyes

[Outro]

If you know something I don't

Won't you please, please

Won't you please, please open your eyes
