Clear Skies, Come Open Wide

from Clear Skies, Come Open Wide by Mike Dragon

/

lyrics

Prison walls stacked high,
so high as the eyes can see,
constructed, erected solely to bury me,
but it's so hard to believe what you promised me,
that we are free to leave, we've always had the keys.

So it seems I'm as trapped as I'd admit to be,
right behind these thoughts,
these cares, calls infinity,
do you see?

A heart of stone, dry as bone,
we are searching for a watering,
but we swallow sands from arid lands
still pretending they're quenching,
it wasn't hard to reveal what was killing me,
all I see now is how to see myself objectively.

So it seems I'm as parched as I'd admit to be,
right behind this thirst,
this curse, dwells divinity,
you'll see...

So I call you,
"clear skies, come open wide,"

I've got to stop this machine from controlling me,
and I've got to stop this disease from spreading,
so I call you,
"clear skies, come open wide..."
