Of Eyes That See Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Scares me that I'm not afraid of losing any more
Where's the edge I used to walk?
Haunts me that I'm not afraid of hurting any more
I refuse to live my days
So complacent that I'm numb to the bone
I wanna live to see the day
That the words I sing are more than just a song
Hold me close, I need to feel alive
I can't waste any more time
I am finally seeing the light
Don't let me go, I need to feel alive
I can't waste any more time
I am finally seeing the light
There's a bliss I used to love
A sweeter sense of freedom that I've ever felt before
But every step I take, I fall
Deeper into ignorance, it's all I've ever known
I refuse to live my days
So complacent that I'm numb to the bone
I wanna live to see the day
That the words I sing are more than just a song
Teach me to walk on the waters
Show me what a life with a meaning would be
Take me across all the oceans
I wanna go further than I've ever dreamed

Very important lesson Close "I "
Open yours "Eyes"
We always forget "Others" when we get something
But there role in our life is very very important but we think that We do it by ourselves .
When something wrong happened we started to blame others.
Sir this life lesson is Really "EYE" opener for everyone

Prabhuji, when we all are busy in this corporate world to promote ourselves, to sell our skills & effectiveness, we often ignore contribution of others. In fact ego hold us back to accept the role of others since we don't want to give credit to others.
Your these wonderful speeches help poor people like me to wake up our morale again & act accordingly. Your speeches are like oasis in a desert. Thank you Prabhuji. Hare Krisna.
