Dead to the World: Alive in My Eyes Lyrics

[Intro]
My love, you lie still in a coma and I'm to blame
I just want your eyes to open for me

[Verse 1]
How quickly we're at each other's throats
Completely meaningless with nowhere to go
The more I try to prove what's right
The more we seem to scream and fight
When you sped off in your car
I could feel a pulsing in my heart
Scared to death that I may never see you again
You couldn't see that oncoming car
And when you both collided
It drained the light from your eyes

[Chorus]
But I can't give up on what we have
Even though we may never wake up from this nightmare
If I could rewind time, I'd keep you safe
And try to stop you from driving off that night

[Verse 2]
Too proud to admit when I'm wrong
Too afraid to let you know I am crippled without you here
It's eating away at me
I can't sleep
I can't eat till' you're awake and resting right beside me
[Chorus]
But I can't give up on what we have
Even though we may never wake up from this nightmare
If I could rewind time, I'd keep you safe
And try to stop you from driving off that night
I swear I'd stop you

[Outro]
Hooked up to machines
Dependent for every breath you take
I'll be there when your eyes open
I'm just begging you to wake up
Dead to the world: alive in my eyes
