X's On Your Eyes

Open up from that way you left behind,
I can see the sky just fine from the ground,
I can be here safe and sound,
be pressured into the mistakes you made,
learn from them and be aware,
that this life isn't truth or dare,

shield from the bad, a hope for home,
my blood is the best proof I can show,
that I am man, with my free will,
I can move forward while you stand still,

my friends are close, but my family's closer,
they mean more than you think,
ignore them and they're gone in a blink,

friends will always come and go,
it's a gentle one night stand at this show,

shield from the bad, a hope for home,
my blood is the best proof I can show,
that I am man, with my free will,
I can move forward while you stand still,

cross out what you hate most,
I raise my drink and propose this toast,

I am human, I am sane,
I do what you do, just the same,

I am human, I am sane,
I do what you do, just the same,

I am human, I am sane,
I do what you do, just the same,
