Fear The Future - With My Eyes Wide Open Songtexte

A moon-kissed night in June
The forest in full bloom
And whispering warm winds her groom

A silhouette vast and vile
Climbed the dark velvet sky
The black beast she rose... and stole the starlight

Black - is all that it will be
Dread - all around I see
Pain - all I feel is pain
Hate - and all I know is hate

For every flower festering flies
To every truth one bitter lie
In every perfection there are flaws
To every caress a touch of claws

No, I know, you've never been there
No, I know, you haven't seen it
No, I know, to you it's hidden
I stand with my eyes wide open

Dark - I foresee the coming days
Bitter - changes in uncanny ways
Spawn - of Armageddon unleashed
Nightmare - season for man and beast

I never asked for these eyes, never wanted to see beyond the lies
Here I stand, eyes wide open
Here I stand, eyes wide open

Seeker - what lies beyond
Perceiver - I see the world so differently
Believer - who are you to me
Deceiver - how you blind me

With my Eyes wide open, I still stand!

Man a meek small creature
So chained and entangled
With so little knowledge
So limited and strangled
Why must I limit myself
Why do I have to be confined
We are said to have a choice...
God knows I made mine

No, I know, you've never been here
No, I know, you haven't seen it
No, I know, to you it's hidden
I stand with my eyes wide open

Silent and beautiful
the forest in fullest bloom
And I still stand
with my eyes wide open
