It's a cruel world, you're on your own but you don't know it. Open your eyes. Yesterday we were just children, playing games, having fun; but we had to grow up. Open your eyes. Stepping foot into a sad world, you look for the good, but it's so hard to find. We're not children anymore. Open your eyes. Crying out desperately for help, but no one comes; you don't know if you can do it on your own. Open your eyes. But you have to make your own way, you're on your own. Open your eyes. A bright light fills your vision; you wake up. You can finally see.
