lyrics

Open your Eyes (Jimmy Tillier)

Close your eyes, and in the dark
Try to forget all you like
Try to think about the world
Try to feel people around

Close your eyes, and free your mind
You don’t see, but you’re not blind
You’re starting to feel humanity

Open your eyes and feel dazzled
Open your eyes and see the truth
Open your eyes and meet your world

No illusions, no fakes or lies
Open your eyes, and all is bright
Open your eyes

Look around you there are people
You didn’t see them all before
Now that your eyes are all opened
You are not alone any more

You didn’t know you were in jail
In the comfort of your own house
Outside there’s fear, and violence
But you’re not said there’s something else

Open your eyes and feel dazzled
Open your eyes and see the truth
Open your eyes and meet the world
For the first time, without blinkers

No illusions, no fakes or lies
There are colors, hopes and smiles
Open your eyes, and all is bright
Open your eyes

Open your eyes and
discover, meet, look, listen,
feel, share, love, smile, laugh
and....live

Open your eyes and feel the light
Open your eyes and see the truth
Open your eyes and meet the world
For the first time, without blinkers

No illusions, no fakes or lies
There are colors, hopes and smiles
Open your eyes, and all is bright
Open your eyes
