Open Your Eyes lyrics

Monday i drifted away With some coffee to keep me awake And you saw new york one final time As this credit card _ Tuesday i woke with the dawn And put my old wedding ring on. She said, "time is a fickle mistress. You can drink, but you'll never fool it." I am invisible to you. All on my own, what can i do? Southbound is heaven, the city of sin. And wednesday i hung from a tree Hoping that you'd notice me, That you'd bathe all my wounds in your tears And shower me with sympathy. And thursday was harder to take With these pills piled high on my plate, So i swallow each one in a haze. In a cascade of light, i was saved. I am invisible to you. All on my own, what can i do? Southbound is heaven, the city of sin. She says, "i'm sorry, my darling. Time stole the joy we were hiding. I am in love and this baby is yours." And i don't wanna live in this light. Let your darkness just cover my eyes. And i'm trying to get myself clean, But it's all i can do to just scream.
