Open Your Eyes

Your eyes they can smile And look many ways See more than a mile But not through a haze We are lucky to see Not all of us can We get it for free But not every man We all see life different It’s just how we’re made And no matter how distant Do not to be afraid I’ve opened an eye Only to see It was not I But wished it could be The eye in my mind Lets me see through it I know that you’ll find That I’ll never say screw it If you could pick a sight What would it be Maybe a kite Or even a tree Open your eyes And please look around No matter your size Even look through the sound My eyes they will close It’s time for my bed I’ll send you a rose Should I kiss you instead
