[@kaileewalden3586]

The back story is dark. This is a double meaning for coming of age and the Hunger Games. It's somewhat about coming to terms with the guilt and terror of the arena (adulthood) and what it brings out in people.

[@queenqurtata9957]

1210Nique But this song is specificially for The Hunger Games. Not for anything else.

[@rebekahsnead529]

This is probably my favorite song by Taylor. This song has inspired me the most. I think she's singing about when we are kids we don't notice the bad in the world, and we are naive and we think everyone will be there to help us. But, once you get older and step into the real world things become clearer that people want to bring you down. You need to keep your eyes open because people don't like to see others succeed, and you need to keep your head up.

+dogs4life Still the same person, but it's easier to say "old taylor" than "old songs that taylor wrote and the style in which she wrote them"

[@navyblue2398]

This song is very special to me ❤️ It throws me back to 2013-2014 when I was in uni trying to blend into my surroundings and getting used to a collage I never chose (my parents did!) I kept reminding myself that I had to keep moving forward and stay strong through all the hassles ..!

[@noreennudalo]

this song reminds me of my childhood..playing soldiers, dreaming dreams with happy endings, winning battles with the wooden sword... so true..

[@jungkooktrash4739]

tbh but this song can still be relatable in real life, despite the fact that this was made for hunger games.

"Every lesson forms a new scar, they never thought you'd make it this far" ~Sniffles~ I was totally caught off guard by this lyric

MEEEE

[@ratanasorn8080]

[@janinesalcepuedes4754]

This song deserves an award. One of my favorite Taylor Swift's songwritten. I really love the lyrics😍

[@afsariayaan6815]

such a song exists?????

[@jddclovesjrcb]

Afsari Ayaan another song she wrote for hungrr games

[@marsmaximoff_]

its for the hunger games

[@pepethefrog2]

The Hunger Games books and movies are sooo good!! Also, the soundtrack fits so well.

[@whitepouch0904]

This was made for Hunger Games soundtrack right?

[@ga75]

@@whitepouch0904 yes

[@32phxntom94]

Who ELSE IS STILL IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG IN 2019?

[@theoldfelix]

to be honest this is one of taylor's most under-appreciated songs

[@Snowypup44]

i hadn't even heard this song until it came up on Pandora

[@jainamehta687]

Who else is here after the announcement of Folklore this morning?! I'm hoping TS8 is like this song; this was always one of her most underrated!

[@angelinebena9675]

Jaina Mehta did you get what you expected😂

[@AsheshDubey]

We got a lyrical masterpiece

[@JustACoverStory.]

have been a Taylor fan for years and jut now found this song... man that's crazy XDDD

[@donnaeasty1816]

Do you know that she wrote it for the Hunger Games movie.

[@cecilialove7765]

My New Normal same omg

[@shubhamgopal2077]

My New Normal same here. but liked the song

[@__jessjessjess620]

My New Normal same here. Just found this today and I've been a Taylor fan since the days of fearless. Like how did I not know about This?!?!?

[@joytroye2971]

G-Dragon Big Bang Hehe. VIP, I see.

[@Roadwarrior721]

Does anyone know where I can find tab or sheet music for this? My daughter loves it and I wanna play it on guitar, especially the electric part

[@felcovers]

I remember when i first listened to this and fell in love with it a few years ago.

[@amberforce3526]

Taylor is my inspiration, and my idol, her lyrics always help me through what I am going through, and she jut inspires me to do what I love I love you Taylor swift :) anyone agree?

[@elenamalvisi]

Amber force I agree

[@adannassar3187]

Hearing this version for the last time since we’re getting Taylor’s version

[@Jesus_is_savior]

Such a underrated masterpiece.

TAYLORS VERSION OUT AT MIDNIGHT

[@Pauline2222]

Why i love this song: Taylor singing, Its from The Hunger Games!

[@jackson-zo8pt]

I know, right! Best of both worlds. take a look at Safe & Sound, it's for the Hunger Games as well, and Tay sings :)

[@Pauline2222]

Jamie K Thank u but i already know that song. Its awesome to! ;)

[@jimmyfigueras4476]

that reverb on "keep your eyes open" is so magical, let alone in the bridge, it's like a cry for hope, love, peace, freedom.

[@heisulan]

HERE BEFORE TAYLOR'S VERSION THIS MIDNIGHT -

[@Almaraulou]

Anyone Still listening in 2019??

[@Enrique305]

2022

[@kaileewalden3586]

This reminds me more of Mockingjay than it does of Hunger Games. Especially the meltdown part. I think that's one way to showI just how well Suzanne Collins could so expertly weave in reoccurring themes thought her stories.

[@cherylroberts4881]

same

[@alicelee13]

Actually this song was based off the hunger games

[@kaileewalden3586]

+Alice Lee I'm aware this was written for the first Hunger Games movie. I am just saying that the lyrics are more fitting for Mockingjay in my mind.

[@alicelee13]

Ohh ok that makes much more sense, and I agree completely

[@kaileewalden3586]

+Emily w Not necessarily. She found a level of peace after years of trauma at the end.

[@luinestablero5860]

HERE GETTING READY FOR THE TAYLOR'S VERSION

[@_brunobareiro6592]

taylor's version tonight

[@topheer_98]

3 hours left for the Taylor’s Version ❤️

[@rienna15]

that was freaking awesome!!! i love taylor swift

[@Allirawr1]

CAN'T WAIT FOR TAYLOR'S VERSION!!!!! WAAAAAHHHH

[@migzymm]

"everybody's waiting for you to break down" hits so hard

[@bughead8620]

Folklore tonight guys ❤️

[@knifeforkandaspoon]

I wonder why an official video was never made for this song. The stop-motion doesn't really capture the emotion that the song conveys.

[@sofiamoukhalid633]

Because it wasn't a single

[@syaffiq89]

It's a single actually. Safe & Sound was not.

[@dissadistfied]

Flynn Fitzherbert weren't they both singles though???

[@roseannalin301]

This deserves more views!!

[@theultimateways6855]

Roseanna Lin Yes, and more deserve for vevo certified, cause it's more than inspirational and motivational song for The Hunger Games.

"Eyes Open" Everybody's waiting Everybody's watching Even when you're sleeping Keep your ey-eyes open 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 Keep your eyes open Everybody's waiting for you to break down 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 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 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 Yeah you've got something they don't You've just gotta keep your eyes open Everybody's waiting for you to break down 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 Keep your feet ready Heartbeat steady Keep your eyes open Keep your aim locked The night goes dark Keep your eyes open (Keep your eyes open [4x]) Everybody's waiting for you to break down 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 Keep your ey-eyes open Keep your ey-eyes open
