"Eyes Open" lyrics
Lay it out
For the long run
Reaching round
Corners of the ocean
You never stood a chance oh
You're always heading too high up
Laid your cards on your heart
Close your eyes
The needles in the dark
For a minute on the inside
For a quarter of a piece of time
Lay it out
For the long run
Reaching out
Corners of the ocean
You never stood a chance oh
You never travelled far enough
Kept your arms in the cold
Lost your legs
You left it at the start
And your thoughts are turning sideways
You started realising
It's like an occasion
Celebrate with eyes open
You're struggling for conversation
Waiting for the fall the fall the fall
An occasion
Celebrate with eyes open
You're struggling for conversation
Waiting for the fall the fall the fall the fall
For the long run
Reaching round
Corners of the ocean
You never stood a chance oh
You're always heading too high up
Laid your cards on your heart
Close your eyes
The needles in the dark
For a minute on the inside
For a quarter of a piece of time
Lay it out
For the long run
Reaching out
Corners of the ocean
You never stood a chance oh
You never travelled far enough
Kept your arms in the cold
Lost your legs
You left it at the start
And your thoughts are turning sideways
You started realising
It's like an occasion
Celebrate with eyes open
You're struggling for conversation
Waiting for the fall the fall the fall
An occasion
Celebrate with eyes open
You're struggling for conversation
Waiting for the fall the fall the fall the fall
