Open Up Our Eyes

Written by Matt Salada

VERSE ONE
Yeah, I know it’s time to truly see ourselves
And get a good look through someone else
Who sees the way we live and love and when we fail to try
So instead of wanting it all

CHORUS
We’ll want to help our brothers we’d be leaving behind
And try to break someone’s fall
Before we try to spread our wings and fly
And so we’ll finally decide
The best way to be ourselves
Is help each other to rise and open up our eyes
We’ve got to open up our eyes

VERSE TWO
Yeah, we could walk a thousand miles and only see
That life is good for you and me
But never see that times are tough for people passing by
Instead of passing them all

CHORUS
We’ve gotta help our brothers we’ve be leaving behind
And try to break someone’s fall
Before we try to spread our wings and fly
We need to finally decide
The best way to be ourselves
Is help each other to rise and open up our eyes
We’ve got to open up our eyes

BRIDGE
Yeah, I know deep down I can be somebody
Who makes the world the place we want
A world where we don’t leave somebody
Alone to face the storms to come.

CHORUS
A world that keeps each other from falling behind
A world that breaks someone’s fall
And helps each other spread their wings and fly
A world that finally decides
The best way to be ourselves
Is help each other to rise and open up our eyes
We’ve got to open up our eyes
Yeah, we’ve got to open up our eyes
We’ve got to open up our eyes.
