Eyes open
But I can’t see
Eyes open
You don’t see.
When does it happen?
It happens in good times
for everyone, you and me.
Let me tell you why
Good times come
Make us blind;
So we can’t see
So many things
when we are not alert.
Not aware of the state of affairs
That goes inside and outside us.
When bad times come
shake us, make us alert
So we see things clear
With our eyes open and mind alert.
