jake edwards - open doors lyrics

Loading...

i’ve opened doors then never shut
about the world and how it sees me

i’m starting to think i should just give up
but i can’t help wanting to feel free
from this cage of a body

why are we born with such rigid lines of what we are?
the battle’s raging and i’m far
from being done

oh, my heart’s open like a live wire
oh no
when you’re talking of need and desire
oh yeah
and there’s nothing you do
no, there’s nothing you can say
to change my heart, to change my ways
when you’re told you are defined
by your body, not your mind
you’re inside a path to follow like you’re blind

now i’m reaching but i fall
into a battleground of unfamiliar voices
everyone else seems so tall
and they’re screaming
“it’s not a matter of having choices”

and why are we told to hide every tear and every scar?
the battle’s raging and i’m far
from being done
yeah, i’ve only just begun

oh, my heart’s open like a live wire
oh no
when you’re talking of need and desire
oh yeah
and there’s nothing you do
no, there’s nothing you can say
to change my heart, to change my ways
when you’re told you are defined
by your body, not your mind
you’re inside a path to follow like you’re blind

now i’m done, yeah i’m over
trying to show you all
how it works and how i feel
when you’re so afraid of
what i’ve come to be
you never stopped to ask if i was happy

oh, my heart’s open like a live wire

now my heart’s open like a live wire
oh no
when you’re talking of need and desire
and there’s nothing you do
no, there’s nothing you can say
to change my heart, to change my ways
when you’re told you are defined
by your body, not your mind
you’re inside a path to follow like you’re blind
