Eyes Wide Open Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I could hear her breathing
No one believed me
No one believed me
I could hear those voices
So deceiving
So deceiving

[Pre-Chorus]
Cool wind on my face
Cool wind on my face

[Chorus]
Do you know how it feels to be afraid
Lying there frozen, with my eyes wide open?
And do you know how it feels to find a trace
Of words unspoken, with my eyes wide open?
I know your secret

[Verse 2]
I can feel you calling
I know that you're there
I know that you're there
Tell me all your memories
I'll keep them alive
I'll keep them alive
[Pre-Chorus]
Cool wind on my face
Cool wind on my face

[Chorus]
Do you know how it feels to be afraid
Lying there frozen, with my eyes wide open?
And do you know how it feels to find a trace
Of words unspoken, with my eyes wide open?
I know your secret

[Bridge]
I heard you, I felt you
I know, so what do you want from me?

[Pre-Chorus]
Cool wind on my face
Cool wind on my face
Cool wind on my face
Cool wind on my face

[Chorus]
Do you know how it feels to be afraid
Lying there frozen, with my eyes wide open?
And do you know how it feels to find a trace
Of words unspoken, with my eyes wide open?
I know your secret
I know your secret
[Outro]
I know, I know, your secret

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
