lyrics

The everlasting fear
of knowing your fears.
Is taking its tole on me.

I watched everything
fall before my eyes.
I'm falling to my knees.
So happy that i walked away.
Why did I stay?

There was a boy,
and he had it all.

He put himself up against the odds,
against the world with nothing to fear.
Why cant you see?
This isn't me.

I've worn a mask for far to long.
Now I'm starting to fear myself.

Broken, his will was cast aside.
What is this your asking of me?
Falling to his knees,
tears in his eyes,
laboring a breath.

I'm sick of being a liar,
a dreamer who's only thoughts are of himself.
I give all my heart
yet I receive nothing.

Open
your eyes a little wider
and see for yourself.

Save me
from who I used to be.

I am no longer who I was.

It was his last
his life was slipping through his hands.
But for another
it was worth a second chance for her
to see another day.
This isn't me.

I've given more than second chances,
I've given everything to you.
This isn't me.

Open your eyes.

She takes away all the fears of the costs I've laid.
She takes away the countless days.
I was seeking
searching for a home.
I was lost,
but now I'm found.

Open your eyes
it's all about progression and love.
Open your heart
it's all about connection and love.
