lyrics

Come see the world my way
Lend me a piece of time, a minute of your day
I do not beg, I take
You’ll feel another self,
Yeah see the world my way

A ray of light in your boring life
I’ll show you how the sun can shine,
Your eyes
Your all-time sealed mouth
Dirty pale skin
Give it to me

Chorus:
Stay alive,
It’s you the one who’s blind, no, it’s not them
Prepare to feel how the real life is like
And see the world now
Stay alive,
It’s you the one who’s blind, no, it’s not them
Prepare to feel how the real life is like
And see the world my way

Come see the world my way
Accept your other self
Yeah feel the world this way

Your body is yours but your mind is mine
No ain’t no way you can resign to life
Your stubborn sealed mouth
Boring pale skin
Give it to me

Chorus

I know you’re there to steal my eyes
I know you’re there to kill me
