Taking the first Steps on the path Timid and jumping at shadows Failing and falling Wanting and needing The answers that we dream Open my eyes To know this world Is more than black and white Open your eyes To a world that has more than pain Rapid fire Dieing of days That fast becomes your life Cherish the breath And drink in the joy Before it wastes all away Open my eyes To know this world Is more than black and white Open your eyes To a world that has more than pain When the sun sets will you weep with regret Or find your life after death I will stand tall and toast to my fate And beg for nothing at all
