Sum 41 - Open Your Eyes (Alternative Solo) w/ lyrics

  • il y a 10 ans
"i have a whole stock pile of old sum 41 stuff saved in storage. versions of songs that never got used, old demos, unreleased tracks etc. i found something the other day that i had forgotten about. this was the original version for the song open your eyes. it has a shorter first chorus and a different guitar solo. this was the way i intended the song to be but somehow it got changed in the studio along the way. i ended up using this solo in a different song later on, but i always liked this version and i still do. here ya go.

LYRICS:

LATELY,
I'm not quite myself.
MAYBE,
I do need some help.
Just my confusion,
Trust my delusions.

DON'T YOU,
Regret you met me?
GO THROUGH,
These steps to get me.
Back to where we start,
Before I fall apart.

If I could black out,
It'd become so clear.
Standing face to face with everything I fear.
Watch so closely,
But still I don't see.
As bad as it seems,
A piece of mind, I'd steal.
In ordinary life,
The consequence is real.
I'm past the point of reality.


This isn't me,
This isn't you,
But it's just everything we do.
'Till you open up your eyes,
And understand this isn't real.


It's like a bad dream,
That's becoming all so true,
Leaving me with nothing else left to do.
Now so helpless,
I'm not so selfish.
Tell me,
How does it feel to have a face like that?
How does it feel to be replaced like that?
Now so faceless,
Do you still feel?

This isn't me,
This isn't you,
But it's just everything we do.
'Till you open up your eyes,
And understand this isn't real.
This isn't me,
This isn't you,
This is everything but true,
'Till we come to realize,
It's what we put each other through.

It's hard to believe right now,
This seems to be real.
It's unfazing by this time,
SO WHY CAN'T I WAKE UP!?

This isn't me,
This isn't you,
But it's just everything we do.
'Till you open up your eyes,
And understand this isn't real.
This isn't me,
This isn't you,
This is everything but true,
'Till we come to realize,
It's what we put each other through.
