lyrics

It’s always the open window that gets all the rain
If you open your heart to me you’ll feel only pain
I never look back behind me until I run dry
So I’m running on empty most all of the time

The sun is shining open the shades
Open the window to let in the breeze
On the other side the world’s open wide
But where you are not is all I can see

Lift you up on my shoulders to check out the stage
The smoke machines cough girls are dancing in a cage
I shout out above the chorus that will be me someday
But I know you don’t hear me its better that way

The sky is falling but inside it is warm
The more that I feel the softer the pain
The rains destination is the also its source
So hard to miss until it’s gone again

When you reach out to touch me the air comes in waves
And my heart starts to shiver as it is dancing in a cage
Just one touch of your fingers and everything breaks
And I can’t see the shape of your shadow in the rain

If all the worlds riches are heaped upon me
You’ll still find me somewhere I don’t want to be
When they take out my stitches you can open your eyes
Some things never heal no matter how hard they try

It’s always the open window that gets all the rain
If you open your heart to me you’ll feel only pain
I never look back behind me until I run dry
So I’m running on empty most all of the time
