Open Up Your Eyes by Tempest Shadow (Emily Blunt) Lyrics

[Verse]
It's time you learned a lesson, It's time that you understand
Don't ever count on anybody else in this or any other land
I once hoped for friendship to find a place among my kind
But those were the childish wishes of someone who was blind

[Chorus]
Open up your eyes, see the world from where I stand
Me among the mighty, you caged at my command
Open up your eyes, give up your sweet fantasyland
It's time to grow up and get wise, come now little one
Open up your eyes

[Bridge]
We all start out the same with simple naïve trust
Shielded from the many ways that life's not fair or just
But then there comes a moment, a simple truth that you must face
If you depend on others, you'll never find your place

And as you take that first step upon a path that's all your own
You see it all so clearly, the best way to survive is all alone
[Chorus]
Open up your eyes, see the world from where I stand
Me among the mighty, you caged at my command
Open up your eyes and behold the fading light
It's time to grow up and get wise, come now, little one
Open up your eyes

[Outro]
Open up your eyes!
