Open Your Eyes

[Verse 1]

Monday I drifted away

With some coffee to keep me awake

Then I sang to you one final time

Cause this hopelessness shut up your eyes

Tuesday I woke with the dawn

And the horrible wedding went on

She said time is a fickle mistress

You can drink but you'll never fool it

[Chorus]

I am invisible to you

All on my own, what can I do?

Southbound is heaven, the city is sin

[Verse 2]

And Wednesday I hung from a tree

Hoping that she'd notice me

And she bathed all my wounds in her tears

And showered me with sympathy

Thursday was hardеr to take

With these thеse pills piled high on my plate

So I swallowed each one in a haze

In a cascade of light I was saved

[Chorus]

I am invisible to you

All on my own what can I do?

Southbound is heaven, the city is sin

[Bridge]

She says, "I'm sorry, my darling

Time stole the joy we were hiding

I am in love and this child is yours"

[Verse 3]

And I don't want to live in this lie

And let darkness just cover my eyes

And I'm trying to get myself clean

But it's all I can do to just scream

La di da da di da da da da

Da da da da da da da

La di da da di da da da da

Da da da da di da da da da

[Outro]

I have a question for you, I made a mistake and I need to know, um, how to rectify it. I'll do my best. Well I just feel like, there's something more that I'm supposed to be doing besides
