If you could soldier on
Headstrong into the storm
I'll be here waiting on the other side
Don't look back. The road is long
The first days of the war are gone
Take back your former throne and turn the tide
Cause if you never leave home, never let go
You'll never make it to the great unknown till you
Keep your eyes open, my love
So tell me you're strong, tell me you see
I need to hear it, will you promise me to
Keep your eyes open, my love
Just past the circumstance
The first light… a second chance
No child could ever dance the way you do
Oh, tear down the prison walls
Don't start the curtain call
Your chains will never fall until you do
Cause if you never leave home, never let go
You'll never make it to the great unknown till you
Keep your eyes open, my love
So show me your fire, show me your heart
You know I'll never let you fall apart if you
Keep your eyes open, my love
Open up your eyes
The weight is unbroken
Open up your eyes
Keep your eyes open
Don't let the night become the day
Don't take the darkness to the grave
I know pain is just a place
The will has been broken
Don't let the fear become the hate
Don't take the sadness to the grave
I know the fight is on the way
When the sides have been chosen
Cause if you never leave home, never let go
You'll never make it to the great unknown
Open up your eyes
Keep your eyes open
So tell me you're strong, tell me you see
I need to hear it, will you promise me to
Keep your eyes open, my love
So show me your fire, show me your heart
You know I'll never let you fall apart if you
Keep your eyes open, my love
