Open Your Eyes
Died like an angel
all for your halo
but you never saw it
when it was coming down
never wanted it
just a taste of it
Already too late
standing at heavens gate
what a martyr you'd make
never wanted it
just a state of it
All the wrong reasons
you committed your heart to treason
now that you finally see
never wanted it
just a taste of it
They try to fly
on paper wings
the Golden Kingdom
painted in rust
only the dust
the harpstrings all out of tune
the halo askewed
never wanted it
just a taste of it
Died for nothing
but a mirage
a distant dream
Everything to live for
now that you see
took your life away
for a shiny veneer
never wanted it
just a taste of it
A chorus of angels
their songs all broken
a poor mans token
never wanted it
just a taste of it
You were carried away
by a hallowed truth
so empty inside
the paradise you so believed
never wanted it
just a taste of it
died like an angel
just for your halo
what a martyr you'd make
if only you could see
see the truth denied
see what they hide
behind it all
you never saw it
coming
down
never wanted it
just a taste of it
now that you see
already too late
died like an angel.
