Cold Holiday: One Eye Open

Share This Post

“One Eye Open” is the sixth track on Cold Holiday’s 2023 album “We Are All We Have.”

I shut the door, turn down the lights
I take one more look around the place
I keep one eye open, just in case

We’re in a moment no one can meet
Every day moves like a week
But I can’t stop and I can’t sleep

open, keep your eyes open

Who isn’t bitter, who doesn’t feel drained
When we leave these lines hanging and have to stay awake
Over and over we’ve got each other to thank

Don’t share your answers, don’t give me your plans
All I have now is a question to ask
How did all of this get so stupid and sad?

open, keep your eyes open

I shut the door, turn out the lights
Take one more look around the place
I keep one eye open, just in case
one eye open, just in case
