Tear Out My Eyes

Album: Awakened (2012)

  • The storm is coming and I have a choice
    To accept nature or lose my voice
    Shall I scream and plead for nothing
    Or build a roof over my head?
    I mourn the days that I wasted
    Trying to change what has been set
    Fighting against myself

    Before I tear, tear out my eyes
    I'll just admit they're part of me

    I've labelled enemies who do not hate me
    And then claims friends who could care less
    All an unnecessary struggle
    So now I know what it means to repent
    Changing everything

    Before I tear, tear out my eyes
    I'll just admit they're part of me (they're part of me)

    Instead of fighting against myself
    I will open my eyes
    To find who needs me
    I am awakened
    I am awakened

    Before I tear, tear out my eyes
    I'll just admit they're part of me (they're part of me)
    I am awakened Writer/s: JORDAN D MANCINO, JOSH GILBERT, PHILLIP JOSEPH SGROSSO, SAMUEL NICHOLAS HIPA, TIMOTHY P LAMBESIS
