i stood there wondering what it was that i was feeling
i don't know how long i stood there
i couldn't even tell you if i was actually standing
i could't tell my body from the ground or the people around me
the only thing i know is that it was raining that day
it was remarkable really
i've never know the weather to move through walls before
i tried to look up to see the rainclouds that lurked in over my head
but i only saw the back of my eyelids
i wondered if i really was blind
was i always?
i heard the thunder then
and the lightning struck me
it was her voice
and i felt my heart shatter

stop
feeling
everything

open your eyes
you're not blind
you're just scared
scared of the truth
open your eyes
and take things as they come

it's not rain, babe
those are tears
it's time to come up for air
it's time to catch your breath
it's time to breath

I opened My eyes
and I saw Her

I opened My eyes
and I saw Myself
