Open my Eyes

I keep asking why
begging the man above to answer my prayers
to give me a sign that my sorrow will end
and i'll stop crying

i keep my eyes closed
wishing upon stars i don't see
for dreams to come true

i keep my heart at bay
locked away, buried beneath my pain
never feeling. . .

i keep pushing
never really hearing the whispers
never really seeing. . .

i keep crying
and i keep missing the signs
for i never opened my eyes.
