Open Hand

As we lie here in bed
Your eyes run right through me
Did you hear what I said
I'm falling
I'm falling down
Falling down
She said
And I thought that you would listen
We were not meant to end
I still dont know
What we always were
And I thought that you would give in
you told me love would never die
But you lied
You always lied
There was a time
I thought you were something
Something that I would never be
Now is the time
I know that you're nothing nothing
That I would want to be
Did you hear a thing I said?
Your eyes roll right through me
And I thought that you would listen
We were not meant to end
I still dont know
What we always were
And I thought that you would give in
You told me love would never die
But you lied
You always lied
There was a time
I knew you were something
Something that I would never be
Now is the time
I know that your nothing
Nothing that I would want to be
I feel like I am falling into my needs
I need for you to open your eyes
So give me one more try
I'll show you i can this time
To give my life
So give me one more try
So give me one more try
I feel the sun now
I feel the sun now

I don't know now
its not the time, to talk about it
are you calling out this time?
you'll see tonight,
please leave on the light

Are we done this time?
am i this all right?
you let me down
i know right now
ive tried before to find a way

i know, im home
when i walk in and see your face
but now, youre gone,
and my life seems so out of place

why did i hide from you
from all the things you do
how can i last tomorrow
when i can't even go today?

Turned inside out,


You asked me why do i feel this way
So what now?
What's wrong?i know i feel the same
even i know can't you see
i know why youre not here with me

i know, im home
when i walk in and see your face
but now your gone and my life
seems so out of place

why did i hide from you
from all the things you do
how can i last tomorrow
when i can't even go today
today, i knew when i said goodbye

Let's just say now that I know when
I found you there right next to him
I found out why you lied
You said you loved me the other night

I walked in
I saw you sitting there
you looked at me
you know what i'm thinking
so don't say that I don't care

Let's just say now
that I'm not here
before myself he'd better say
in your eyes I have died
be on my own
live my own life

I know now that I'm ok
Take my life back today


I know now I'm on my way
this pain won't fall away
Far from you is where I'd rather be
is where I'd rather be
is where I'd rather be
is where I'd rather be
Far from you
Far from you

Let's just say now
that I'm not here
before myself he'd better say
in your eyes I have died
be on my own

Since the day I left you there,
I lost my way,
Each time I close my eyes I think of you.

It's too late, too Late, too Late for me to say I'm sorry,
I'm sorry now,
Too late, too late, too late for me to call you mine.

Save the day,
this I know,
Why you go,
I'm feeling so low,
and I wanted to show,
That I changed,
So please don't go today.

I know, I know, I know
What was I thinking?
I'm so sorry that I lost it all again


I know I fucked it up this time
Just another chapter in this story of my life.

I know you don't care what I say,
Should I even try to make you listen,
I know when I miss time,
One more chapter in this story of my life.

Its too late, too late, too late,
For me to say I'm sorry,

I'm sorry

You want it,
You want it,
You need it,
You need it,

You need it,
You want it,
You learn.

You want it,
You want it,
You need it,
You need it,

You need it,
You want it,
You learn.

Said you want it all, So what now?
Said you want it all, I don't know,
Said you want it all,
I don't know this time,

I'm coming on down,
Falling again,
I'm waiting for you to follow,
Ending it there,



I'm waiting, I'm waiting,
So dont' keep me waiting again,
So don't keep me waiting again,
So don't keep me waiting again,

Said you want it all, So what now?
Said you want it all, I don't know,
Said you want it all,
I don't know this time,

Nothing in my way,
There's nothing in my way,
I'll drive this pain from everything [3x]
(Nothing, Nothing, Nothing)

Don't know when I'll get a chance to run,
Run again, I wanna run again,
Looking for the best way, the right way,
To fly again, I wanna fly again.

you said you dont understand me
so why are you here
you wanted me to protect you now
while you turned away
you havent answered the question
of why you are here
you just left me waiting here
how long will you
keep me standing here
keep me standing here
by myself
how long will you
keep your feelings locked up inside
keep me standing here by myself
how long will you
i know its not
like your staying around
were are we now
i know its not
like your staying around
were are are we now


i know its not

fly away
i know its right
i know it
i know its right
i know it
i know it
i know it
i know its right
i know it
i know its right
i know it

As I sit by myself, I've come from so, so far away
In such little time I have gained
My soul, my mind, I've tried so hard to find
Is this what I must do to get by and I ask myself why

Why don't you write?
Why don't you call me? I'll wait here
I'll find my way or will you help me
Help me share

Does she understand me, or listen to what I say
Turn her back on my dreams, watching, waiting
(No turning back)
Find my way out
(No turning back)
Turn your back on my dreams
So strong, so weak, rest on your choice
Is this what I must do

Decide, why, I know
Decide, why, I know
Decide, why, I know
(Yeah)

Why don't you write?
Why don't you call me? I'll wait here
I'll find my way or will you help me
Help me share

I'll find my way out, I'll find my way now, I'll wait here
I'll find my way out, I'll find my way now, I'll wait here
I'll find my way out, I'll find my way now, I'll wait here
...

For now I'll just push my feelings aside
Not to worry it'll be alright
Now I'll just rest from the world that it here
And what it has for me
For now I'll just push my feelings aside
Not to worry it'll be alright
Now I'll just rest from the world that it here
And what it has for me
I know what you want
I know what you need
But I can't give it
I can't give it
Yea, you walked away
Yea, now turn and look at me
That's okay I said it I'll say it again
You want it right now
Its alright I know everything's okay
While you're here with me
Yes I know it
So answer me right now
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
We'll find our own way out
So take my hand
Decide our own way
Just you and me now
Yes I know it, right now
Thats okay I said it I'll say it again
You want it right now
Its alright I know everything's okay
While you're here with me
Falling inside this time
Falling inside
You want it right now
Don't walk away
I'm here today
Falling inside this time
Falling inside
You want it right now
Don't walk away
But I'm here today
I know what you want
I know what you need
But I can't give it
I can't give it
Yea, you walked away
Yea, now turn and look at me
That's okay I said it I'll say it again
You want it right now
Its alright I know everything's okay
While you're here with me

Uh, can I play you, um, some of the new things
I've been through which I think, could be commercial

What's inside
What's inside of your eyes
I don't know now
I don't know
What you want
What's inside of your eyes
I can see right through them now

What's inside
What's inside of your mind
I don't know
I don't know
But stay down
I don't know now

In your eyes
In your eyes
See the light shine though them now
In your eyes
You act the same
We should get it down

See right through you (right now)
See right through you
I see right
see right through you
We should get it down
Take
In your eyes
In your eyes
See the light shine through.
