Eyes Wide Open - Gotye cover by Hana Pestle (2012)
So this is the end of the story
Everything we had, everything we did is buried in dust
And this dust is all that’s left of us
But only a few ever worried
While the signs were clear, they had no idea
You just get used to living in fear or give up
When you can’t even picture your future
We walk the plank with our eyes wide open
We walk the plank with our eyes wide open, we..
With our eyes wide open
Some people offered up answers
We made out like we heard, they were only words
They didn’t add up to a change in the way we were living
And the saddest thing is all of it could’ve been avoided
But it was like to stop consuming is to stop being human
And why would I make a change if you won’t
We’re all in the same boat
Staying afloat for the moment
We walk the plank with our eyes wide open, we..
With our eyes wide open
With our eyes wide open
We walk the plank, we walk the plank
So that was the end of the story
