Lyrics
You recognize this place
You've been here before
When cigarettes were cheaper
And didn't cause cancer
But something is wrong
Someone's not around anymore
You're a stranger right now
Fighting to be recognized again
You're trying to guess
What is this feeling
Going right through your bones
Right to the heart of them
You're trying to find out
What exactly has changed
Is it you, is it them
Is it everything else
You hear the chorus of old song
Fighting against your thoughts
Open your eyes, wide open
Then open your eyes, open
Open your eyes, wide open
Then open your eyes
And you might see everything
Strange is this sound
Forgotten yet familiar
Riddling the heart
You've worked so hard
To barricade
The root of it unwavering
The core uninterrupted
Like the smell of elderflower
In the middle of the spring
Still trying to guess
What is this feeling
Going right through your bones
Right to the heart of them
The essence remains
But the atmosphere has shifted
Don't know why
Don't know when
You'd rather leave it all alone
You hear the chorus of old song
Fighting against your thoughts
Open your eyes, wide open
Then open your eyes, open
Open your eyes, wide open
Then open your eyes
And you might see everything
You don't want to listen
Too many memories at first
But the words are sinking
With each note into your brain
You were trying to resist
But now you cannot help it
The melody is breaking through
The walls you've built around
And then you try
Your eyes are heavy
Tired and stiff after
Looking down for so many years
Of course it's hard
You haven't exercised enough
When you were young
You can't remember why
You hear the chorus of old song
You cannot help it
You have to sing along
Open your eyes, wide open
Then open your eyes, open
Open your eyes, wide open
Then open your eyes
And you might see
Open your eyes, wide open
Then open your eyes, open
Open your eyes, wide open
Then open your eyes
And you might see
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Open, open
Open, open
