If you could soldier on

Headstrong into the storm

I'll be here waiting on the other side

Don't look back

The road is long 

The first days of the war are gone

Take back your former throne and turn the tide

'Cause if you never leave home, never let go

You'll never make it to the great unknown till you

Keep your eyes open, my love 

So tell me you're strong, tell me you see

I need to hear it, can you promise me to

Keep your eyes open, my love 

Just past the circumstance 

The first light, a second chance

No child could ever dance the way you do, oh

Tear down the prison walls

Don't start the curtain call

Your chains will never fall until you do 

'Cause if you never leave home, never let go

You'll never make it to the great unknown till you

Keep your eyes open, my love

So show me your fire, show me your heart

You'll know I'll never let you fall apart if you

Keep your eyes open, my love 

Open up

Open up

Open up your eyes

The weight is unbroken

Open up

Open up 

Open up your eyes

Keep your eyes open

Don't let the night become day

Don't take the darkness to the grave

I know the pain is just a place

The will has been broken

Don't let the fear become the hate

Don't take the sadness to the grave

I know the fight is on the way

When the sides have been chosen

'Cause if you never leave home, never let go

You'll never make it to the great unknown 

Open up your eyes

Keep your eyes open

So tell me you're strong, tell me you see

I need to hear it, can you promise me to

Keep your eyes open, my love

So show me your fire, show me your heart

You know I'll never let you fall apart if you

Keep your eyes, open my love 

Keep your eyes

Keep your eyes open
