Open Your Eyes
Martin Wallström Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mask falls, wait for a miracle
Feel it on my skin
Take the one I'm in
Momentary truth.
No ties
So cold as clinical
Walk miles
Carefully caress
State of undress
Silence holds the proof
So close be yet so far
Fly, fly away
And the way she feels
Wish me to reveal
Things my ego never dared
Fears are fading fast
Further from the past
Show her that I care
I 'll show her that I care
The lyrics of Martin Wallström's "Open Your Eyes" depict the process of letting go of fears and embracing vulnerability with someone. The first two lines paint a picture of someone who has been putting up a facade, hiding behind a mask, and who is finally discovering the courage to take it off and reveal their true self to another person. The phrase "momentary truth" suggests that this feeling of openness and authenticity may be fleeting or temporary.
The middle of the song describes the physical and emotional intimacy between the two people, with the singer carefully caressing the other's state of undress. The phrase "so close yet so far" suggests that while they may be physically close, there are still emotional barriers that need to be overcome.
The final lines of the song express the singer's desire to show the other person how much they care. The taming of their ego and the fading of their fears is a sign of their willingness to be vulnerable with this person, and they are hoping that this vulnerability will allow them to deepen their connection.
Overall, the lyrics of "Open Your Eyes" explore the theme of vulnerability and the fear that can prevent us from truly opening up to others.
