Everybodys waiting
Everybodys watching
Even when youre sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
The tricky thing
Is yesterday we were just children
Playing soldiers
Just pretending
Dreaming dreams with happy endings
In backyards, winning battles with our wooden swords
But now weve stepped into a cruel world
Where everybody stands and keeps score
Keep your eyes open
Everybodys waiting for you to break down
Everybodys watching to see the fallout
Even when youre sleeping, sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
So here you are, two steps ahead and staying on guard
Every lesson forms a new scar
They never thought youd make it this far
But turn around 
Oh, theyve surrounded you
Its a showdown 
And nobody comes to save you now
But youve got something they dont
Yeah youve got something they dont
Youve just got to keep your eyes open
Everybodys waiting for you to break down
Everybodys watching to see the fallout
Even when youre sleeping, sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes
Keep your feet ready
Heartbeat steady
Keep your eyes open
Keep your aim locked
The night goes dark
Keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes open
Everybodys waiting for you to break down
Everybodys watching to see the fallout
Even when youre sleeping, sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
