Eyes Closed, by LostSoul Subscribe to rss feed for LostSoul

It's easy living, when your eyes are closed
No misunderstandings from what you've been told
Cause you believe what they say
And no one's gonna tell you the right way
Cause your too easy to be swayed
Too easy to be paid
When will you open up your eyes
And for once stand up for your right
Livin' in a messed up world, doesn't make it alright

For once don't believe the tv
Don't believe the news
Cause all you will ever do
Is be stuck, in your blues
You haven't got a clue

So I'm hoping you will leave this town
And go visit those third world countries you hear about
Then maybe you will truly know what frowning is and without
a doubt
Go on and buy a ticket
Take that airplane across the seas
See why people do picket
And see if you believe what they see
For every country is different
And every life a blessing
For some, life doesn't amount to nothing
While others it is to believe in something

What ever you do choose
Even if to take a cruise
No one is going to push
You have your own mind
It's up to you on your own dime
Just don't believe in everything you hear
Unless you go out there and be real, have no fear

Life is 'bout a journey
The life you live is what you choose
You can be stuck in abuse
Or live life or refuse
The rest is up to you
