Eyes Wide Open - Beth Crowley

I was

Raised in the shadows so blinded

Lost until I chose to find out

The truth of what I really am

I learned

A power has always been in me

Biding its time but I’m ready

I’m giving the unknown a chance

But everything comes with a price

There’s a whole other world within my reach

(I'm standing at the border)

A whole other world now I can see

(It's too late to change my mind)

I’m still running heart first

But with eyes wide open

I’m still running heart first

But with eyes wide open

You pulled

Me out of the smoke like a hunter

And one look from you made me want more

Than the trenches that I left behind

When I

Lost everything I heard you voice and

It cut its way into the poison

I felt your love bring me to life

I carved you out a piece of me

I look in the mirror to see what it hides

But sometimes reflections are tricks of the light

And you never know what is lurking inside

Inside
