Change In Focus

lyrics

(Open your eyes)
Do you see what I’m seeing? Through these lenses can you see what I’m seeing?
(Open your eyes)
Do you see what I’m seeing? Change the angle; do you see what I’m seeing?

I miss when things, when things they stayed the same
I miss when I was always in the game
Our lives keep spinning, spinning round and round
From which I can’t see from off the ground
I can’t tell what’s right or wrong
It’s hard to know what to believe
After all, I’m not so strong
Is this a dream or reality

I shift the angle and the perspective to my own
I’m seeing clearer and filtering things I don’t condone
Now I’m singing louder than I’ve ever sung before
We’ll make this our song, so maybe time we can restore
Maybe time we can restore and all the things that we adore
Maybe time we can restore. Can we go back to before?

So every day now I’m learning things anew
So out of focus, I couldn’t hear you
But things are different now; I can stand here on my own
Times are changing; don’t want to have to let you go
Where do I go now? My life is tied up at crossroads
I’m barely breathing. What’s left? And there goes all I know
So I’m singing louder than I’ve ever sung before
We’ll make this our song and maybe time we can restore (Open your eyes)
