Name: Open Your Eyes
Duration: P00H03M52S
Description: I think we've played this at every single Final Stage live show. Very Iron Maiden-inspired. I dropped a harmony on the main riff on the record because at the time we were a three-piece and couldn't do it live. We added it back in on the live version on Game Over. TJ's galloping beat really helped to bring this song to life.

lyrics

Like a blinding light, or a chilling stare
Imagine your life in the dark
Your Eyes wide shut, dark and gray
It's not enough to ignite the spark

Chorus:
Open your eyes
What do you see?

You're not a slave, to their binding words
Heed my word and just follow your heart
Everything, was not so easy
Every time it takes you back to the start

Chorus:
Open your eyes
What do you see?
Open your eyes
What do you want to be
