Eyes Open

Ride the waves
As the water seems to deepen
A scary place
The human race
Bound to test all that I am
I know I'll withstand
The changing winds
Blowing cold and off the course
Lets me know
It won't be gone
Or let me go any time soon
I know I'll make my way soon.

I remember all you say
As though the words are tangled
In my thoughts
Speak of all that's black and white
And grey
The more that I see
I wonder if I ever saw at all
Knowing now that it's as bright
As it can be
As bright as it can be

Hold the rope
As the slope begins to steepen
I cannot fall
Or much recall
How I have gotten to this point
I know what's in my hands
Teach me all
That the prey learn from the hunter
Make it all a point of view
Erase the vision that I had
I know I'll make my way soon

I remember all you say
As though the words are tangled
In my thoughts
Speak of all that's black and white
And grey
The more that I see
I wonder if I ever saw at all
Knowing now that it's as bright
As it can be
As bright as it can
I know I'll make my way soon

I remember all you say
As though the words are tangled
In my thoughts
Speak of all that's black and white
And grey
The less that I hide
I wonder if I am visible at all
Knowing now that
I can make it back alive
I'll make it back alive
Back alive
