    Am          Em
My eyes are so tired
            Am
They should sleep
          G
But they won't
      Dm
They don't
      G
They won't let me
          Am
Pass this up

    Am            Em
My eyes are stuck open in love
     Am
They want more of him
      G
They need less of this
        F
They're everything
        Am   G     F
They're unbelievable

   Am                   G
My eyes are lonely and cold
         F                G
They're young and they're old
                 Am
They're looking for a way out
       G
And a moment to let you in
           F
They want nothing to do with me
          G
And only want to do with him
        Am
They're hungry
     G
I'm warning
          F    G
And I'm scared

They won't let me thrive
They'll need everything you own
Make it all so real by learning to feel
What's not really happening
What's going on is much more

Than I ever hoped for
Ever hoped for
And I'd much rather imagine it
Than not live it all
