Eyes Wide Shut

Eyes Wide Shut

Verse 1

Generating hits, you've got several smashes

You should be smiling from ear to ear

Why the sadness and disappointment?

There are many who would kill to be in your spot

That's not an exaggeration

It's a proven fact

If your eyes were wide open, you'd know this

Step outside of white and be in black

To experience the way that things are

Every spectrum of the rainbow

Waiting to capture your attention

Verse 2

A blockbuster falling into your lap

You're so lucky but you don't act that way

There are many who would trade places with you

Right or wrong, this is how it is

You try to shield yourself from knowing many things

Ignorance is not bliss

But you wish that were the case

Bells are always ringing inside your head

Stillness of mind is difficult to attain

If you step outside of white and be in black

Every spectrum of the rainbow will be revealed to you

Chorus

If your eyes are wide shut

Then so is your mind

Your heart is closed

And your spirit is broken

Running blindly without a care in the world

Indifferent to emotions and badly bruised 

With your eyes wide shut
