Stay Open

[Verse 1] Footsteps through the hollow sound Like the wind blew through the south cold Hand looked down, feared something Beneath the old me, without any time We all drifted out from these shores Finding photographs and loveletters in bottles battered, worn Shallow saltwater stinging sore You may not be mine Friends they were shopping next door Spending money on things that they couldn't afford Tide pulls too deep for me to hold Standing still, still changing the tide [Chorus] Stay open, stay open To catch my fault What a shame that I would splinter Or hinder you at all Won't give my love for free Won't give my love for free Oh, but please, take it from me [Verse 2] Trying to send my bitter rhyme But outside [?] jokes and laughs died cold It is a long drive in my thoughts Dance slow behind Show me that you dried in the sand Your favorite book with no pages, I’m the shell of a man I’m fumbling with two sets of keys But I'm settling down Words crawl under my skin Like the wind from the north of your hair Last fall we buried dead plans Choke dying plans Last fall we buried dead plans Choke dying plans [Chorus] [Outro] Oh my god is falling in pieces Oh my god is falling apart Oh my god is being turned over Oh my god, this is out of my hand Stay open, stay open (oh my god, falling to pieces) To catch my fault What a shame that (oh my god, falling apart) I would splinter you Or hinder you at all Won't give my love for free (Oh my god , turning it over) Won't give my love for free Oh but please, take it from me
