Open Up Your eyes Lyrics

Molly lost her sight when she was 14

Blinded by disease, she was afraid of the dark

She was tortured through the years with non-stop bullying

She just kept getting stronger with each hateful remark

'Cause she can see the light shine in the night

And she can see the beauty that's inside

If you would ask her right this moment if she'd ever change a thing

She would smile and just say, "There's a reason for everything"

Hm-mm-mm-mm

Open (open) up your eyes (Your eyes)

Open, open up your eyes (Hmm)

Ellen lost her son at only 17

The drugs just couldn't numb him from the pain anymore

It's the saddest sight his family had ever seen

Their hearts fell to their stomachs when they found him on the floor

He couldn't see the light shine in the night

He couldn't see it'd all turn out alright

If he had stopped back for a moment and seen how much he was loved

He would never lay his finger on the trigger of that gun

Hm-mm-mm-mm

Open (open) up your eyes (Your eyes)

Open, open up your eyes (Hmm)

Taylor lost her mom when she was 24

They didn't catch the cancer 'til too little too late

She has never felt an emptiness like this before

She didn't think she'd ever be retrieved of the weight

But now she sees, what family really means

And she still sees, her mother in her dreams

If you could ask her in a moment what the lesson she was

She'd say never waste a moment on the people that you love

Hm-mm-mm-mm

Open (open) up your eyes (Your eyes)

Open, open up your eyes (Hmm)

Contemplated death more times than you would think

I'm thankful every day I was afraid of the knife

I was left alone with me, it pushed me to the brink

Until somebody showed me just how special is a life

I couldn't see what really mattered then

And now I see the value of a friend

If you'd have asked me in those moments if I could escape that hell

I would never ever imagined I'd be doin' quite this well

Hm-mm-mm-mm

Open (open) up your eyes (Your eyes)

Open, open up your eyes (Hmm)

Open (open) up your eyes (Your eyes)

Open, open up your eyes (Hmm)

Open (open) up your eyes

Open, open up your eyes (Hmm)

Open (open) up your eyes (Your eyes)

Open, open up your eyes
