What an enemy
you became to me
lived a fantasy
an illusion

built scenery
played to the gallery
like so many we
never could agree

all the pain that i
had to hide inside
made me realize
i was starved

Tried so hard to be
anyone but me
everyone could see
so, i've opened my eyes

i'm no longer waiting for a miracle
hold my head up high, the future's now

though i was colorblind
i read the warning signs
and put the past behind
down the gutter

now i finally see
that the enemy
is both in you and me
yeah, i've opened my eyes
i'm no longer waiting for a miracle
both feet on the ground, my future's now
no use in waiting for a miracle
hold my head up high, my future's now
