Everybody's waitin'
Everybody's watchin'
Even when you're sleepin'
Keep your ey-eyes open
The tricky thing
Is yesterday we were
just children
Playin' soldiers
Just pretendin'
Dreamin' dreams
with happy endings
In backyards winnin' battles
with our wooden swords
But now we've stepped into
a cruel world
Where everybody stands and
keeps score
Keep your eyes open
Everybody's waitin'
for you to breakdown
Everybody's watchin'
to see the fallout
Even when you're sleepin'
Sleepin-in'
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
So here you are
two steps ahead and stayin'
on guard
Every lesson forms a new scar
They never thought
you'd make it this far
So turn around
Oh they've surrounded you
It's a showdown
and nobody comes to
save you now
But you've got
somethin' they don't
Yeah you've got
somethin' they don't
You've just gotta keep
your eyes open
Everybody's waitin'
for you to breakdown
Everybody's watchin'
to see the fallout
Even when you're sleepin'
Sleepin-in'
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes
Keep your feet ready
Heartbeat steady
Keep your eyes open
Keep your aim locked
The night goes dark
Keep your eyes open
Everybody's waitin'
for you to breakdown
Everybody's watchin'
to see the fallout
Even when you're sleepin'
Sleepin-in'
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
