Letra da Música Open Your Eyes de Paul Vinson

He was a lost boy causing a scene
Mama said he's hanging with the wrong crowd
Kicked out of high school at seventeen
Daddy wasn't very proud
Now that he's got nothing to show
He's blowing smoke just to tune everyone out
He finds it easier getting by
With his head stuck up in the clouds

There's no hiding from this one
It'll come back to get ya

If you open your eyes, you'll see a red brick house
With the porch lights out in the neighborhood
You grew up in and all your friends
Are calling you, but you're still running
From the fate you thought defined your life
Until you opened your eyes

Until you opened your eyes

A couple years, a couple felonies
No one's gonna hire you now
You're making moves just to make money
So mama had to kick him out

And as the days go by
All she does is cry hoping that

You'll open your eyes, you'll see a red brick house
With the porch lights out in the neighborhood
You grew up in and all your friends
Are calling you, but you're still running
From the fate you thought defined your life
Until you opened your eyes

Until you opened your eyes

Your fate is all a lie
So just open up your eyes and see
The family that you left behind
Was what you needed the whole time
But you were just too young to understand
The failures don't define your life
You fucked it up, but you're alright
Now that you've been given another chance
You hold him in your hands

If you open your eyes, you'll see a red brick house
With the porch lights out in the neighborhood
You grew up in and all your friends
Are calling you, but you're still running
From the fate you thought defined your life
Until you opened your eyes
