Open My Eyes But Let Me Refuse

I can't believe it, I finally see it The myth is real I believe it, feel it ...No wait, it's all an illusion Who do I call to capture my imagination cause I've been fooled by the illusion in my mind Do I own a contusion or am I still dressed in confusion by the crushes who force feed me their personalized drug which toys and picks at my brain piece by piece laughing at me while they perform brainwash surgery Everytime I take a simple look in their eyes to find what lies inside it feels like Medusa hit me twice a stone stare petrified on my face while my heart just sits in it's recliner watching old movies, bringing back fond smiles and bright eyes souvenirs and trinkets I try to breathe back in but I'm frozen again Medusa hit me twice with a stare of petrified ice halting my decision to open my eyes, refuse If I open my eyes to let me forsee failure pouring from leaks Please grant me the power of invisibility or just send me digging into a tree so I can fall upon a branch and watch the sky form a lie in its clouds for me
