OPEN YOUR EYES AND CLOSE YOUR LEGS

Advice a mother gives to her teenage daughter
Reminding her of the morals that she has taught her
OPEN YOUR EYES AND CLOSE YOUR LEGS
Moms says with trust in her eyes
As she says goodbye
Daughter please be wise
OPEN YOUR EYES AND CLOSE YOUR LEGS
The voice still haunts
As she begins to flaunt
To get the attention she wants
OPEN YOUR EYES AND CLOSE YOUR LEGS
The words she hears in her head
As she is being lead
To her boyfriends bed
OPEN YOUR EYES AND CLOSE YOUR LEGS
Is now just a whisper
As he begins to kiss her
Mind in a twister
OPEN YOUR EYES AND CLOSE YOUR LEGS
Advice that was given
Now in regret she is living
The belly cant be hidden
CLOSE YOUR EYES AND OPEN YOUR LEGS
Her mother shouts
As her fatherless baby comes out

very powerful and moving
the words you use portray in a way that is definitely a wake up call
save this and pass it on to young women
