The tricky thing is
Yesterday we were just children
Playing soldiers, just pretending
Dreaming dreams with happy endings
In backyards,
Winning battles with the wooden swords
But now we've stepped into a cruel world
Where everybody stands up,
And keeps score
Keep your eyes open
Everybody's waiting
For you to breakdown
Everybody's watching
To see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping
Keep your eye, eyes open
So here you are,
Two steps ahead and staying on guard,
Every lesson forms a new scar
They never thought you'd make it this far
But turn around
Now they've surrounded you
It's a showdown
And nobody comes to save you now
But you got something they don't
Yeah, you got something they don't
You just gotta keep your eyes open
Keep your feet ready
Heartbeat steady
Keep your eyes open
Keep your aim locked
The night grows dark
Keep your eyes open
Everybody's waiting
For you to breakdown
Everybody's watching
To see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping
This song , here I dedicate to all my friends and myself.
Now that we've grown up as teens, soon adults
There's no longer poneys or rainbows
Its a cruel world outside and we have to keep our eyes open.
Every lesson forms a new scar, hold on to it and keep going
make those who look down on you dissapointed how far you have go through
Good luck in the future, all the best.
