lyrics

Open

I want to touch you
I want to know you
I want to hold you
I want to love you

Let's come together
Join together
And watch the world
Float away...
There is no you
There is no me
Just one, just one
Infinite
Totality

The moment comes
when this too end
and you and I
fall back apart
Afraid again
To stay alone

And so we crumble
Bit by bit
The love we that we
create together
Tear down bridges
Build up walls

So terrified to be alone
We destroy the very love we crave
So in the end
We replicate
The very state
We would avoid...

But I
I choose
I choose to keep trying
Trying to stay open
To keep choosing love
To keep choosing you

And in the face
of all that's passed
between you and me

How do I keep
staying open?
How do we keep
staying open?
staying open
staying open
staying open
staying open...
