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 it's 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
A whole other world now I can see

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

A whole other world now I can see
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
A whole other world now I can see
I'm still running heart first
But with eyes wide open
I'm still running heart first
But with eyes wide open
