9Everybody's waiting
Everybody's watching
Even when you're sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
That's all Percy could think. Everyone wanted to kill him, why wouldn't he think that? All he knew now was that he had to keep his eyes open, al ALL cost.
The tricky thing
Is yesterday we were just children
Playing soldiers
Just pretending
Dreaming dreams with happy endings
In backyards, winning battles with our wooden swords
But now we've stepped into a cruel world
Where everybody stands and keeps score
Now, it's all about swords, battle, and prophecies. He loved the times where he could run around and be a kid, the times where he could just let loose. Apparently, those days are over now. Everyone keeps watch on his every move and freaks when he makes a small mistake, like they were keeping score. What a cruel world he has entered.
Keep your eyes open
All he could do now was keep his eyes open and pray that he didn't get killed.
Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Everyone's watching now. His enemies are waiting for him to back down... or break down. Everyone's waiting for the fallout of the war, allies hoping that everything isn't destroyed and enemies hoping that he makes a vital mistake. He knows; keep your eyes open for every move and mistake. It's all he could focus on every summer for five years.
So here you are, two steps ahead and staying on guard
Every lesson forms a new scar
They never thought you'd make it this far
He has many scars from previous battles, trying to end the futile war. He now stays two steps ahead, trying to calculate Kronos's every move. No one expected him to survive this long, not a one.
But turn around (turn around), oh they've surrounded you
It's a showdown (showdown) and nobody comes to save you now
But you've got something they don't
Now it's happened, he's surrounded. They just won't give up, will they? They're all determined to kill him, but why?
Yeah you've got something they don't
You've just gotta keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes open, keep 'em open, he chanted in his head. Avoid the stab, dodge the arrow. Just keep on fighting.
Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes
They are all still waiting for him to break. He refuses to, though. He will win the war, even if he has to sacrifice himself to do so. Nothing will stop him from winning; all he has to do is keep his eyes open.
Keep your feet ready
Heartbeat steady
Keep your eyes open
Keep your aim locked
The night goes dark
Keep your eyes open
He keeps his feet in the attack/run position, a position that allows him to easily do both moves if he desires. Calm and steady is what he is being, knowing it is the best. His eyes are opened and his aim is steady, intent on ending it all. They fight through the night, but he doesn't mind, as long as his eyes stay open.
(Keep your eyes open, Keep your eyes open, Keep your eyes open, Keep your eyes open)
Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping
He wins, they actually win! Everyone thought he couldn't do it, that he would break under the pressure, but he prevailed. He did it!
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
He now knows that he always has to keep his eyes open, no matter what.
I may have made a mistake.. hee hee! This is the official last chapter of my one-shots. Enjoy!
