Eyes Wide Open - Magnum

Goodnight, baby

Don’t you despair

Sleep tight, maybe

Morning will answer your prayers

Eyes wide open

Going nowhere

No words spoken

Handle your dreams with great care

Their faces still haunt me

I tremble reluctantly

Like children they wonder

Their freedom dies endlessly

We’re all crazy

That’s just a fact

They can’t save me

Heaven will come dressed in black

It’s all over

Into the fire

Hatred smoulders

Gathered 'round each funeral pyre

Their faces still haunt me

I tremble reluctantly

Like children they wonder

Their freedom dies endlessly

The place is still burning

They crumble in sympathy

This nonsense surrounds us

No reason, no empathy

People feel forsaken

In this place together

Everything is breaking

It will take forever

Their faces still haunt me

I tremble reluctantly

Like children they wonder

Their freedom dies endlessly

The place is still burning

They crumble in sympathy

This nonsense surrounds us

No reason, no empathy
