"Little Wide Open" lyrics
Sometimes we diamond
Sometimes we dust
Sometimes we golden
And sometimes we rust
And the pain you've been holding
Can be a little too much
Till the sun starts to fall down
And the sky starts to blush
It's a little wide open and it makes me feel small
It's a little wide open out here after all
It's a little wide open, but I hope it don't close
'Cause I wanna drift off somewhere in it where nobody knows us
Sometimes we're violent
Sometimes we scream
Sometimes the myth grows
Bigger than the dream
We're stuck in a song, babe
That's stuck on repeat
I'm covering my ears till
I can't hear anything
I'm a little wide open most of these days
I'm a little wide open and it makes me feel crazy
I'm a little wide open and I hope that I close
Or else my heart takes everything in and one day explodes
I wanna go back
Back in time
But my body's not a triumph, babe
And life's not some highway
I know I can't be everywhere
All of the time
Oh, but watch me
Die trying
To be a little wide open most of the time
To be a little wide open, wide, wide
To be a little wide open and never to close
To be everywhere all at once, over and over
Humiliate me, baby
Fuck me up bad
Drag all our secrets
Like cats from the bag
Use all our insides
To decorate the parade
Turn me inside out, babe
Hang me on display
I'll be a little wide open, a little shy
I'll be a little wide open, trying to hide
I'll be a little wide open, a little exposed
And I'll wanna drift off somewhere, babe, where nobody knows me
Time, please be kind to me
Time, we're not enemies, though it'd seem
Time, we share the same dream
To stretch on forever, towards eternity
To be a little wide open
To be a little wide open
To be a little wide open
To drift on forever, where nobody knows us
Nobody knows us
Nobody knows us
Nobody knows us
Nobody knows us
Sometimes we dust
Sometimes we golden
And sometimes we rust
And the pain you've been holding
Can be a little too much
Till the sun starts to fall down
And the sky starts to blush
It's a little wide open and it makes me feel small
It's a little wide open out here after all
It's a little wide open, but I hope it don't close
'Cause I wanna drift off somewhere in it where nobody knows us
Sometimes we're violent
Sometimes we scream
Sometimes the myth grows
Bigger than the dream
We're stuck in a song, babe
That's stuck on repeat
I'm covering my ears till
I can't hear anything
I'm a little wide open most of these days
I'm a little wide open and it makes me feel crazy
I'm a little wide open and I hope that I close
Or else my heart takes everything in and one day explodes
I wanna go back
Back in time
But my body's not a triumph, babe
And life's not some highway
I know I can't be everywhere
All of the time
Oh, but watch me
Die trying
To be a little wide open most of the time
To be a little wide open, wide, wide
To be a little wide open and never to close
To be everywhere all at once, over and over
Humiliate me, baby
Fuck me up bad
Drag all our secrets
Like cats from the bag
Use all our insides
To decorate the parade
Turn me inside out, babe
Hang me on display
I'll be a little wide open, a little shy
I'll be a little wide open, trying to hide
I'll be a little wide open, a little exposed
And I'll wanna drift off somewhere, babe, where nobody knows me
Time, please be kind to me
Time, we're not enemies, though it'd seem
Time, we share the same dream
To stretch on forever, towards eternity
To be a little wide open
To be a little wide open
To be a little wide open
To drift on forever, where nobody knows us
Nobody knows us
Nobody knows us
Nobody knows us
Nobody knows us
