I try to take it all in
I blinked and everything
Went silent
Why do our eyes
Show us
What we can't hide from
Why can't i face it now
Oh why can't i spot you out
I will try my best
Not to let it get to me
I will put to rest
This crumbling reality
I just have to open my eyes
And see
It was obvious
The light couldn't catch us
A blind spot formed
Where our love once was
What's in plain sight
Is hidden from me
But you saw how i was so
Lonely
I will try my best
Not to let it get to me
I will put to rest
This crumbling reality
I just have to open my eyes
And see
Why can't i see
What i need
And what i can get from you
Why am i blind
To this fleeting life
That i stand idly by
Couldn't stop it if i tried
You never met my eye
Tossed hopes aside
I thought you were mine
But i watch you slip out of sight
There's no hint of light
And i can only hope for the best
I will try my best
Not to let it get the best of me
I will put to rest
The one who's not meant for me
I will try my best
Not to you get the rest of me
I will put to rest
The vision you had for me
I put you to rest
But i guess i will never be free
Eyes up to the lens
Now you've got me seein things
A magnifying glass
Showed me how it really ought to be
A simple do your best
Was all you had to give me
Open your eyes
Open your eyes and see
Open my eyes
Open my eyes and see
Why can't i face it now (open your eyes)
(open your eyes and see)
Oh why can't i spot you out (open my eyes)
(just open my eyes and see)
Why can't i face it now (open your eyes)
Why can't i spot you out (open your eyes and see)
Why can't i face it now (open my eyes)
Why can't i spot you out (open my eyes and see)
