"Eyes Wide Open" lyrics

With our eyes wide open, we...
With our eyes wide open, we...

So this is the end of the story
(Story!)
Everything we had, everything we did (everything we did)
Is buried in dust
And this dust is all that's left of us
(Is all that's left!)
But only a few ever worried

Well, the signs were clear, they had no idea
You just get used to living in fear
Or give up when you can't even picture your future

We walk the plank with our eyes wide open

We walk the plank with our eyes wide open, we...
(We walk the plank with our eyes wide open, we...)
We walk the plank with our eyes wide open, we...
(We walk the plank with our eyes wide open, we...)

Some people offered up answers (the answers!)
We made out like we heard, they were only words
They didn't add up to a change in the way we were living (we're living!)
And the saddest thing is all of it could have been avoided

But it was like to stop consuming's to stop being human
And why would I make a change if you won't?
We're all in the same boat, staying afloat for the moment

We walk the plank with our eyes wide open, we...
(We walk the plank with our eyes wide open, we...)
We walk the plank with our eyes wide open, we...
(We walk the plank with our eyes wide open, we...)

With our eyes wide open, we...
We walk the plank, we walk the plank!
With our eyes wide open, we...
We walk the plank, we walk the plank!
...

That was the end of the story...

With our eyes wide open, we...
