Eyes to See Lyrics

people are always too polite
mirrors flatten out, reverse your left and right
hard to find out what you are
self-delusion of eyewitness from afar
the old still think they're young
the sad still think they're happy
the d***ed still think that they're the ones who're free
give me eyes to see

got no markers to live by
no commitments that i have to satisfy
tell myself it's all ok
but everybody's living life some other way
the old still think they're young...

try to keep my vision clear
trace it as i find, open and sincere
seems the right thing till i lie
down at night and hear a little voice reply
the old still think they're young
the sad still think they're happy
delusion or despair is facing me
give me ecstasy
