Jamie's Elsewhere - Empty Eyes lyrics

I refuse to to lie awake in this bed While the world holds it's gravity over my head You call this ignorant I call your ignorance I will never be one with the simple minded We see through the weak And we'll never be blinded You're blowing smoke from your mouth Actions speak louder then the words you've made out And nothing worthy comes easy But you can follow I'd rather be leading Well we've been losing all the sleep in the night We're painting pictures of our future it's in our minds They sleep when we dream but We strive to open up their empty eyes No we won't ever be the ones who oblige Their simple minds are even starting to realize That their dreams are in reach And we've tried to open up their empty eyes And we tried to open their empty eyes Blind sided by their simple minds I've been placed in a position many fear A voice traveled up my spine As he whispered in my ear And he said Carry my voice and I will carry you And I'll spread your every word Just to cover up their wounds Carry my voice and I will carry you Carry my voice and I will carry you Carry you Well we've been losing all the sleep in the night We're painting pictures of our future it's in our minds They sleep when we dream but We strive to open up their empty eyes No we won't ever be the ones who oblige Their simple minds are even starting to realize That their dreams are in reach And we've tried to open up their empty eyes Once you stop dreaming you might as well be dead I found a purpose in life with the air in my chest When you stop dreaming you might as well be dead So find your purpose in life Every day I feel my ambition amplifying And every day I see my dreams come true Every day I feel my ambition amplifying So make a promise to yourself you've got nothing to lose Well we've been losing all the sleep in the night We're painting pictures of our future it's in our minds They sleep when we dream but We strive to open up their empty eyes No we won't ever be the ones who oblige Their simple minds are even starting to realize That their dreams are in reach And we've tried to open up their empty eyes No we won't ever be the ones who oblige Their simple minds are even starting to realize That their dreams are in reach And we've tried to open up their empty eyes And we tried to open up their empty eyes
