Looking back I clearly see
What it is that's killing me
Through the eyes I want to know
See a vision once let go
I had it all

Well constantly it burdens me
How to trust, I can't believe
I lost the faith, I lost the love
But when the day is done

Will they open their eyes, and realize we are one
On and on we stand alone until our day is gone
Will they open their eyes, and realize we are one

I love the way I feel today
And how I know the sun will fade
Darker days seem to be
What will always live in me
But still I run

Its hard to walk this path alone
Hard to know which way to go
Will I ever save this day?
Will they ever change?

Will they open their eyes, and realize we are one
On and on we stand alone until our day is gone
Will they open their eyes, and realize we are one
Still today we carry on, I know our day will come
Will they open their eyes, and realize we are one

Will they open their eyes, and realize we are one
Hard to walk this path alone
Hard to know which way to go

Will they open their eyes, and realize we are one
Lost the faith, Lost the love
But when the day is done

Will they open their eyes, and realize we are one

    I love this song, Alter Bridge are one of my favourite bands. I didn't really know them that well back in 2011 (Metalingus, was the only song I knew), but I saw them live at Download Festival and have listened to them religiously ever since. Absolute top class.
