Who am I to be?
Identical to every heart that sees?
I feel you in my soul
But is there something more that I still need?
Am I brave, to be lost in emotion?
If I change, will it earn your devotion?
Without flame, can I really be broken?
Am I safe, if I keep my eyes open?
What am I to hold?
Confidence in everything I'm told?
I hear you in in the depths
But is there something more I need to know?
Am I brave, to be lost in emotion?
If I change, will it earn your devotion?
Without flame, can I really be broken?
Am I safe, if I keep my eyes open?
If I keep my eyes open
Can I keep my eyes open?
Conform no longer to the patterns of your fear
No longer to the image in your mirror, revere
Am I brave, to be lost in emotion?
Without flame, can I really be broken?
Am I safe, if I keep my eyes open?
If I keep my eyes open
Can I keep my eyes open?
I can keep my eyes open
I can keep my eyes open
