Lyrics
For all the reasons I have lied
I have a mask for each that?s mine
There?s a reason for the truth to hide
You cannot see me with open eyes
Summer?s end is in sight
Figured out the mental slide
Is it worth it for me to fight
If I told you?
I need your hope to get me through
Lost mine along the road
not less traveled but I knew I was alone
chorus
Open eyes
holdin? up the sky above
what if you?re called away my love
will it all come crashing down?
will my world stop spinning?
Chorus
Open eyes
