"Eyes Wide Open"
Goodnight, baby, don't you despair
Sleep tight maybe, morning will answer your prayers
Eyes wide open, going nowhere
No words spoken, handle your dreams with great care
Their faces still haunt me
I tremble reluctantly
Like children they wonder
Their freedom dies endlessly
We're all crazy, that's just a fact
They can't save me, Heaven will come dressed in black
It's all over, into the fire
Hatred smoulders, gathered round each funeral pyre
The place is still burning
They crumble in sympathy
This nonsense surrounds us
No reason, no empathy
People feel forsaken
In this place together
Everything is breaking
It will take forever
