"Eyes Open" lyrics
"Eyes Open"
Trust
Is that what you thought you were waiting for
Counting up disasters you had in store
Thoughts you've been containing from wanting more
Emptiness is something to behold
Is that what you wanted to be? Everyone?
Remnants left of what you were before
Innocence is something to be
Was it meant for you to not belong
If I ask you enough you'd still tear up the ones you love
If I held you enough you'd still tear up the ones you love
If I told you enough you'd still tear up the ones you love
If I gave you enough you'd still tear up the ones you love, wide open
A trigger without a gun, sights open
I know that you wanna shut, eyes open
A trigger without a gun, eyes open
The difference commitment makes
The payout was not what was expected
Afraid that it would break you fashion a placebo
I saw it was a fake but even that has merit
Lest we go on just repeating
Trust
Is that what you thought you were waiting for
Counting up disasters you had in store
Thoughts you've been containing from wanting more
Emptiness is something to behold
Is that what you wanted to be? Everyone?
Remnants left of what you were before
Innocence is something to be
Was it meant for you to not belong
If I ask you enough you'd still tear up the ones you love
If I held you enough you'd still tear up the ones you love
If I told you enough you'd still tear up the ones you love
If I gave you enough you'd still tear up the ones you love, wide open

Cursive - "The Recluse" I wake alone, in a woman's room I hardly know.
I wake alone- and pretend that I am finally home.
