One Eye Open
I forgot what life's
about
and now I'm down for the count
pinned beneath an avalanche of comfort
I may be on my back
but I'm refusing to give up
'cause I've still got
one eye open
one eye shut
and one eye open
I'm all bruised up
but nothing's broken
nothing's broken
from down here on the
floor
this world looks big and I feel small
defeated once again by dust and ashes
but I will rise again
'cause I just can't quit this game
though the point of it only comes to me in flashes
with one eye shut
and one eye open
I'm all bruised up
hey, but nothing's broken
nothing's broken
I've got this dream
that just won't die
and dreams don't come with reasons why
they come with things you've got to do
I may not make it through the race
I may fall flat upon my face
but at least I'll wake up some place new
with one eye shut
and one eye open
I'm all bruised up
hey, but nothing's broken
nothing's broken
