Fear The Future With My Eyes Wide Open Lyrics

A moon-kissed night in June
The forest in full bloom
And whispering warm winds her groom
A silhouette vast and vile
Climbed the dark velvet sky
The black beast she rose... and stole the starlight
Black – is all that it will be
Dread – all around I see
Pain – all I feel is pain
Hate – and all I know is hate
For every flower festering flies
To every truth one bitter lie
In every perfection there are flaws
To every caress a touch of claws
No, I know, you’ve never been there
No, I know, you haven’t seen it
No, I know, to you it’s hidden
I stand with my eyes wide open
Dark – I foresee the coming days
Bitter – changes in uncanny ways
Spawn – of Armageddon unleashed
Nightmare – season for man and beast
I never asked for these eyes, never wanted to see beyond the lies Here I stand, eyes wide open
Here I stand, eyes wide open
Seeker – what lies beyond
Perceiver – I see the world so differently
Believer – who are you to me
Deceiver – how you blind me
With my Eyes wide open, I still stand!
Man a meek small creature
So chained and entangled
With so little knowledge
So limited and strangled
Why must I limit myself
Why do I have to be confined
We are said to have a choice...
God knows I made mine
No, I know, you’ve never been here
No, I know, you haven’t seen it
No, I know, to you it’s hidden
I stand with my eyes wide open
Silent and beautiful
The forest in fullest bloom
And I still stand
With my eyes wide open
