Eyes Wide Open Songtext
von Goo Goo Dolls

I′m a fortunate son of a fortunate son
Living large on the wrong side of town
Too many friends and the fun never ends
Drinkin' and hangin′ around

I wanna rule the world
Wanna swallow it whole
At least I could kick it all down
I wanna kick it all down

Eyes wide open, I can't see
Eyes wide open, what you mean?
Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be

My eyes wide open, I can′t see
Eyes wide open, what you mean?
Eyes wide open, I can′t seem to be

I don't take the bus, and I never walk too far
The furthest I got was my own backyard
With a fist full of cash that somebody else earned
Sent me some more when it all got burned


I wanna take control
Wanna make it all mine
At least I could kick it all down
I wanna kick it all down

Eyes wide open, I can′t see
Eyes wide open, what you mean?
Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be

My eyes wide open, I can′t see
Eyes wide open, what you mean?
Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be

You never ever know
You never ever know
You never ever know
You never ever know

I′ll get what I want if I make up my mind
I'm turnin' you inside out

I wanna rule the world
Wanna swallow it whole
I think I′ll just kick it all down
I wanna kick it all down

Eyes wide open, I can′t see
Eyes wide open, what you mean?
Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be


My eyes wide open, I can′t see
Eyes wide open, what you mean?
Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be

Eyes wide open...
Eyes wide open...
Eyes wide open...
Eyes wide open...
Eyes wide open...
Eyes wide open...
