Eyes Wide Open
Scavenger Hunt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've had some bad ideas and I can't take them back
I've been down so low
Gave me a heart attack
I hope I don't outgo this face of burning fast
Never give up never let go and fade away

Isn't it obvious my love for us now
Giving me such a rush and making me high

How free is your mind
Are your eyes wide open
If you feel like you falling behind
Come along we're going

How far do you wanna go
How far do you wanna go
How far do you wanna go

I wanna be a star of my own fantasies
Don't want somebody else taking the place of me
I'll always be the girl fulfill with tragedy
Never give up never let go and fade away

Isn't it obvious my love for us now
Giving me such a rush and making me high

How free is your mind
Are your eyes wide open
If you feel like you falling behind
Come along we're going

How far do you wanna go
How far do you wanna go
How far do you wanna go

How free is your mind
Are your eyes wide open
If you feel like you falling behind
Come along we're going

How free is your mind
Are your eyes wide open
If you feel like you falling behind
Come along we're going





How far do you wanna go
How far do you wanna go

Popjustice brought me here and I was not disappointed!

@Athirn

Damn I love this one! I can't even explain… It's like energy boiling inside just shoots out and then goes back in just to shoot again. :))) And veeery stylish. Modern sound with 80's style — it's like future in the past.

@MJ-vd8bj

so good

@r0xjo0

Any chance of new music? Your social media has been dormant for at least a year. Anything in the works? Love your music so much.
