Open Your Eyes
Scarpoint feat. Sweden United - feat. Jens Kidman (Meshuggah) Jimmie Strimmel (Dead by April) Anette Lyrics

Interpret my way to be
Make an effort to understand and accept my unique way of being

Alone I feel like no one cares
I experience a sense of isolation and neglect from those around me

Tears keep falling, the walls are closing in
I am overwhelmed by sadness and feel trapped in my current situation

Dark institution of agony and pain
I am stuck in a place or situation that causes immense suffering and despair

Narcissistic people around me
The self-centered individuals in my life are making me feel weaker and more vulnerable

Makes me weaker, don't you see?
Their behavior is detrimental to my emotional well-being

Another day, became the prey
Every day I feel like a target of someone's harmful intentions

Feeling insignificant if I were to fade
If I were to disappear, it would not matter to those around me and I would not be missed

I believed, I believed you were my friend
I placed my trust and faith in you as a loyal companion

Thought you were there for me
I had confidence that you would support me in times of need

Open your eyes and see me
Pay attention and recognize my value and worth as a person

Yes it hurts, to always come far behind
It is painful to constantly be overlooked and undervalued

To always be last in line
I am consistently placed at the bottom of the priority list

Living with an empty hollow soul
I am experiencing a profound sense of emptiness and lack of purpose in life

During my darkest day
At my lowest point and in my most challenging moments

You came and gave me a reason
Your support and encouragement gave me a sense of purpose and motivation

A source of safety and persistence
You provided a secure and unwavering presence in my life

But all this time you slandered me
Despite your apparent support, you have been speaking negatively about me behind my back

I've been used and abused
I have been taken advantage of and mistreated by others

I've been bruised, I've been beat
I have endured physical and emotional pain and trauma

And still I refuse to give in to defeat
I will not succumb to the negative emotions and circumstances that have tried to bring me down

Instead I stand my ground and I try to stand tall
I maintain my strength and keep pushing forward despite adversity

With a fist in my face and my back against the wall
Even when faced with physical or metaphorical violence, I will not back down

Regn allt detta regn som faller hela tiden
Let all this rain that falls constantly

Rinner ner på huden mellan jackan och nacken
Flow down onto the skin between the coat and the neck

Blötte ner min tröja och gör huden kall som frusen skit
Soak through my shirt and make my skin as cold as frozen mud

Men inget kommer döda mig när jag väl har kommit hit
But nothing can kill me now that I have reached this point

För nu är jag här
Because now I am here

Jag står ju här rakt framför dig i mörkret mellan bilarna
I am standing right in front of you in the darkness between the cars

Och väntar på att du ska bränna mig
And waiting for you to burn me

Du kommer aldrig klara att plocka mig ur tiden
You will never be able to take me out of the game

För det är mitt regn som faller hela tiden
Because it is my rain that falls constantly

When everyday feels like a trial
When every day feels like a difficult and challenging test

I hide within my shell
I retreat into myself and shut out the world

Blood flowing through my veins
The life force coursing through my body

Seeking a way out
Desperately searching for a solution or escape

Am I stuck in this hell, forever?
Will I always be trapped in this miserable existence?

Tell me you so called friend
Please reveal to me, my supposed friend

I believed, I believed you were my friend
I had complete faith and trust in you as a friend

Thought you were there for me
I believed you would always be there to support me

Open your eyes and see me
Take notice of my presence and value in your life

Yes it hurts, to always come far behind
It is emotionally painful to consistently be overlooked and undervalued

To always be last in line
To consistently be placed at the bottom of the priority list

Open your eyes and see me
Become aware of and acknowledge my worth and significance
