Eyes Wide Open

I was
Raised in the shadows so blinded
Lost until I chose to find out
The truth of what I really am
I learned
A power has always been in me
Biding its time but I'm ready
I'm giving the unknown a chance

But everything comes with a price

There's a whole other world within my reach
(I'm standing at the borderline)
A whole other world now I can see
(It's too late to change my mind)
I'm still running heart first
But with eyes wide open
I'm still running heart first
But with eyes wide open

You pulled
Me out of the smoke like a hunter
And one look from you made me want more
Than the trenches that I left behind
When I
Lost everything I heard your voice and
It cut its way into the poison
I felt your love bring me to life

I carved you out a piece of me

There's a whole other world within my reach
(I'm standing at the borderline)
A whole other world now I can see
(It's too late to change my mind)
I'm still running heart first
But with eyes wide open
I'm still running heart first
But with eyes wide open

I look in the mirror to see what it hides
But sometimes reflections are tricks of the light
And you never know what is lurking inside
Inside

There's a whole other world within my reach
(I'm standing at the borderline)
A whole other world now I can see
(It's too late to change my mind)
I'm still running heart first
But with eyes wide open
I'm still running heart first
But with eyes wide open
