Pretty Open Eyes

Pretty open eyes
They fill me up surprisingly
With a hope I'll find
A place to sleep so soundly
Dreams are disguised
As a meaning we should follow
How hard we try
To hold onto ourselves
And not to let go

We could call this life
We could call this everything we know
We could say we tried
We could let them say
I told you so
But we'll take this life
And we'll make it everything we know
Then we'll know we tried
Never let them say
I told you

Pretty open eyes
Open up to find just what they seek
When closed they dream
Of places way too far to reach
So find the truth
And you can set yourself free
And we can prove
The all we needed, was to believe

We could call this life
We could call this everything we know
We could say we tried
We could let them say
I told you so
But we'll take this life
And we'll make it everything we know
Then we'll know we tried
Never let them say
I told you

I told you so seems to come around
More often than I'd like to hear it
Don't wanna hear it, I don't wanna hear it
So shut your mouth
Don't make a sound
Erase the doubt, that I am bound
That I am stopped by limits
Shut your mouth
Don't make sound
Erase the doubt, that I am bound
That I am stopped by limits

We could call this life
We could call this everything we know
We could say we tried
We could let them say
I told you so
But we'll take this life (pretty open eyes)
And we'll make it everything we know
Then we'll know we tried (open up your eyes)
Never let them say
I told you so
