I Open My Eyes

[Catch&Release]

I open my eyes

My vision seems to be a lie

Nothing looks right

All messed up and distorted

Maybe that is why I try

Because I know nothing's the way it's supposed to be

Maybe I want to be a success story

Not a chandelier

Maybe I get up in the morning

To try and face my fear

I can't sit in bed

Because I feel useless

When I try to do something and I mess up

I feel stupid

When I'm afraid

I try to beat it

When I succeed 

I feel conceded

So I close my eyes again

And feel like a coward
