Emilio: It's time you learned a lesson,
It's time that you understand,
Don't ever count on anybody else,
In this or any other land,
I once hoped for romance,
To find a place among my kind,
But those were the teenager wishes,
Of someone who was blind

Emilio: Open up your eyes,
See the world from where I stand,
Me among the mighty,
You caged at my command,
Open up your eyes,
Give up your sweet romantic land,
It's time to grow up and get wise,
Come now Martin Kratt,
Open up your eyes 

Emilio: We all start out the same,
With simple naive trust
Shielded from the many ways,
That life's not fair or just,
But then there comes a moment,
A simple truth that we must face,
If we depend on others,
We'll never find our place

Emilio: And as we take that first step,
Upon a path that's all our own,
We'll see it all so clearly,
The best way to survive is all alone

Emilio: Open up your eyes,
See the world from where I stand,
Me among the mighty,
You caged at my command,
Open up your eyes,
And behold the pure darkness,
It's time to grow up and get wise,
Come now Martin Kratt,
Open up your eyes,
Open up your eyes!
