Blind Eyes Open

[Verse 1]
I was wearing blinders to stave off the reminders
Of your image
Never contemplating the incinerating
Of my bondage
The rites of spring had no meaning
In my brain
And I could cling, icicling
Just the same

[Pre-Chorus]
And all the time you saw me
You could not thaw me

[Chorus]
And now you've made blind eyes open
And sunlight streams in
And everything's clear as crystal
Enlightenment

[Verse 2]
Like a frozen snowfield I could never reveal
My true colors
I would never listen to all that I was missing
With the others
You stepped into my field of view
And triggered
My Cupid snare, who would have dared
To figure

[Pre-Chorus]
That all the time you saw me
You could not thaw me

[Chorus]
And now you've made blind eyes open
And sunlight streams in
Everything's clear as crystal
Enlightenment

[Bridge]
I curse my warped perspective
Just when I least expected
The tables turned, the candles burn
At both ends, and my nerve ends send
Sensational headlines to my brain

[Chorus]
And now you've made blind eyes open
And sunlight streams in
And everything's clear as crystal
Enlightenment
And now you've made blind eyes open
And sunlight streams in
And everything's clear as crystal
Enlightenment
And now you've made blind eyes open...
