My eyes are closed,
It’s time for me to open them,
To face the world, and the truth,
To face the people that
Doubt me, hate me, and talk about me.
It’s my life, not theirs.
There is no collar or leash on me, to say
They own me, or to pull me around on,
And tell me what to do.
So I’m goin’ to open my eyes,
To see the ones there.
The ones who have been there,
And never left my side,
My true friends.
I’m goin to open my eyes
And face my fears,
Learning it's OK to be alone....
Even though I'm not.
Learn to be strong,
And take care of myself.
Learn to face the truth,
Even if I dont want to.
Learn to uncover the hidden things
The things about myself I never knew.
So I'm opening my eyes,
Hoping I can face myself and everyone else.
Hoping I can face my fears
And my darkest secrets
