Open Your Eyes

Open your eyes and look at me See how I've changed I'm not the same Open your eyes and look at me I'm not the same person I'm not a little girl Open your eyes and look at me I've gotten taller I've gotten bigger Open your eyes and look at me Stop being so blind Stop hiding behind your eyelids Open your eyes and look at me See how I've hurt See the tears trickling down my cheek Open your eyes and look at me See how I've lost and how I've found Open your eyes and look at me because I'm not the same and I want you to see me.
