Open your eyes and show me what's insidenLet me explain these shuffling feet and tired armsnDo up your coat to protect yourselfnFrom what has been in the end of all thingsnnLet the wind blow across your facenIn a sea of smiles you were the only one in tearsnSo they came to lighten my loadnAnd they were singing,nWhat was it for? (Repeated)nnSo look aroundnMostly the view is beautifulnBut there's more than just fingertipsnSo in this room separated from the worldnI'd sell you my own values for the sake of othersnSo hold this glass cos' it keeps cutting menTry to focus on the image of a good guynTry not to cry. And I'm singing..nWhat was it for? (Repeated)
