Eyes Wide Open
These scenes
Wrapped up in spangle
And delicate duplicity
These ties
All must be severed
Illuming the validity
These lies
Empty
But filled up with putrid ideals
This cast
Must break
And signify our unity
Eyes are open
Eyes are open wide
Skies are molten
A world left behind
We are
A faction of patrons
Consuming what we think is real
A sea
Of bodies we trample
In turn it's our souls that they steal
We've been
Misled
We've buried ingenuity
The truth
Is dead
We're treading all over it's grave
Eyes are open
Eyes are open wide
Skies are molten
A world left behind
You're being taught to conform
Pushed to be part of the norm
You lose the true parts of yourself
Becoming part of something else
Open your eyes
Sexism
Racism
Fascism
Capitalism
Speciesism
Homophobia
Transphobia
Misogyny
Open your eyes
Hypocrisy
Famine
Genocide
Brutality
Extinction
Unconciousness
Inequality
Open your eyes
Hate and fear
Open your eyes
Hate and fear
Open your eyes
Hate and fear
Open your fucking eyes
Pawns of hate and fear
Open your eyes
Eyes are open
Skies are molten
Eyes are open
Eyes will open wide
Skies are molten
A world left behind
Eyes are open
Eyes will open wide
Skies are molten
A world left behind
Wrapped up in spangle
And delicate duplicity
These ties
All must be severed
Illuming the validity
These lies
Empty
But filled up with putrid ideals
This cast
Must break
And signify our unity
Eyes are open
Eyes are open wide
Skies are molten
A world left behind
We are
A faction of patrons
Consuming what we think is real
A sea
Of bodies we trample
In turn it's our souls that they steal
We've been
Misled
We've buried ingenuity
The truth
Is dead
We're treading all over it's grave
Eyes are open
Eyes are open wide
Skies are molten
A world left behind
You're being taught to conform
Pushed to be part of the norm
You lose the true parts of yourself
Becoming part of something else
Open your eyes
Sexism
Racism
Fascism

Open your eyes

Open your eyes
Hate and fear
Open your eyes
Hate and fear
Open your eyes
Hate and fear
Open your fucking eyes
Pawns of hate and fear
Open your eyes
Eyes are open
Skies are molten
Eyes are open
Eyes will open wide
Skies are molten
A world left behind
Eyes are open
Eyes will open wide
Skies are molten
A world left behind
