Open your Eyes

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
My bones ache, my skin feels cold
And I'm getting so tired and so old

The anger swells in my guts
And I won't feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
'Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Get up, get out, get away from these liars
'Cause they don't get your soul or your fire
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine
And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time

Every minute from this minute now
We can do what we like anywhere
I want so much to open your eyes
'Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you

You know what the worse part of it all is? You know it, when you do it. When you say it. When you actually write down the words that will make it all stop, ruin everything, make her leave, walk away, drag herself out of it all.

You are overwhelmingly conscious the moment just before you do it, while you do it, spill out those words that will drag you all the way down the shit hole of loneliness. You know it's wrong... You know you don't want to do it, that you'll regret it and won't be able to take it back... ever... never... Yet you do it...

And in the moment just after... The emptiness... It's so dark... It's so deep... So Deep...
