Open Your Eyes
Copia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Animosity uncovered
There's a feeling of despait
Paranoia indiscressions
Feed the atmosphere
Our worlds collide
But I just won't give in to you
We're not through
Yeah, we can't just shake it off
Yeah, we can't just shake it off

Misderection and deception
Hearts are on the line
Detach our inhibitions
Hear me
Can't you see it
You've got a dark side
Your hidden demons
Are eating me alive

Yeah, we can't just shake it off
Yeah, we can't just shake it off

Open your eyes
We've been living in a shade of grey
There's blood upon our hands
But our love will wash it away

Madness taken over
Insecurities have come to life
Time to end the violence
And break the silence

We're seething
Conceding
And we're throwing it all away
The only way forward is to persist
And not just just shake it of

Open your eyes
We've been living in a shade of grey
There's blood upon our hands




But our love will wash it away
So open your eyes
