Eyes Wide Open

It's not a surprise
That we ended this way
Since I've put you on a pedestal
Every single day
No matter what you did
I always looked the other way
So I guess you got accustomed
To having things your way
(Chorus)
My eyes are wide open
Now I'm able to see
All the nasty things that
You've been doing to me
No more tinted glasses
To hide what you're about
'Cause I'm finally seeing straight
And you sure ain't no Girl Scout
The straw that broke the back
Of the camel I'd become
Was your constant indiscretions
Now just made you numb
You didn't give a damn about
How this made me feel
You'd just throw it in my face
And expect that I would kneel
(Chorus)
My eyes are wide open
Now I'm able to see
All the nasty things that
You've been doing to me
No more tinted glasses
To hide what you're about
'Cause I'm finally seeing straight
And you sure ain't no Girl Scout
I don't know what will happen
Now the spell you had is gone
I'm looking at you different
And I'm not a worthless pawn
I loved you every minute
Of every single day
And for that you decided
To always make me pay
I know I deserve better
Than you ever treated me
And apparently there're many fish
Swimming in the sea
(Chorus)
My eyes are wide open
Now I'm able to see
All the nasty things that
You've been doing to me
No more tinted glasses
To hide what you're about
'Cause I'm finally seeing straight
And you sure ain't no Girl Scout
