SOMETHING OPENED MY EYES:
I just did what I had to do, And I didn't care if I hurt you
And that's a lie and so is everything, that we were living
We thought that we had it all, you thought that you had me
You gotta stop puttin' me first in everything you do,
You gotta stop lovin' me

I'm lost and I'm not the same
I'm a different man than I was yesterday
Something opened my eyes and made me feel ashamed
Of what I was doing, of what we were doing

I'm in pain and I'm OK, I try to drown myself in every way
But when the time comes that I can just let go
And I'll be gone, yes, I'll be gone

I'm lost and I'm not the same
I'm a different man than I was yesterday
Something opened my eyes and made me feel ashamed
Of what I was doing, of what we were doing

This world is mine and I won't stand around
While somebody else tries to hold me down
Someday I'll die, but I'll be smiling
When they lay me in the ground When they lay me in the ground

And you may come, yes and you may not
It won't matter anyway
And all I'll leave behind is stubbornness and happiness
And a few songs along the way

I'm free and I'm moving on
I just started living my life today
Something opened my eyes and now I know
What I'm doing and where I'm going
