[Verse 1] I used to see the world the way I wanted to, Painted every warning in a different shade of blue, Thought every open door was somewhere I belonged, Had to walk through a few to learn that I was wrong. I gave my trust away, I learned what trust can cost, Found a little wisdom in the things I thought I lost, Now when I look into the mirror, something changed, Same face looking back, but I don’t think the same. [Chorus] Now my eyes are open, open wide, I can see the truth I used to hide, Every mistake, every fall, every road I chose, Taught me something that I needed to know. I’m still learning, I’m still becoming, But I finally know which way I’m going, I was sleeping through the life I thought I knew— Now my eyes are open, and I see it all brand new. [Verse 2] I don’t hate the person that I used to be, He was doing what he could with what he couldn’t see, Every wrong turn left a lesson in my hands, Every goodbye helped me understand. I don’t need to have the answers anymore, I just know I’m not the man I was before, Yesterday can talk, but it can’t tell me where to go, ’Cause the more I live, the more I learn, the more I know. [Chorus] Now my eyes are open, open wide, I can see the truth I used to hide, Every mistake, every fall, every road I chose, Taught me something that I needed to know. I’m still learning, I’m still becoming, But I finally know which way I’m going, I was sleeping through the life I thought I knew— Now my eyes are open, and I see it all brand new. Dj ANU
