about

Our most punk song. A set opener. Drive over all

lyrics

Blond hair, with black eyes
Nail polish in the shape of the sky
Broken nose, broken heart
You been screamin, bleedin out from the start, so you
Closed your borders, hurt my eyes
That’s when you ran and tried to leave me blind
So for you I’ve got a little advice, you got to
Open up if you wanna survive

Dry face, with dry eyes
But your heart is breakin achin to cry
Can’t see no bruises, can’t see your scars
But you light yourself on fire tryna see in the dark
I see you smokin, in the rain
But you’ll never stop the bleedin, you’re just stopping the pain
So for you I’ve got a little advice, you got to
Open up if you wanna survive

You’ve got that man in your shadow
You think your heart is so hollow
You’ve got that man in your shadow
And you know others will try to follow

So for you I’ve got a little advice, you got to
Open up if you wanna survive
