Wide-Eyed and Open-Armed
HOME
Staring into the mirror at the foot of my bed
Into the eyes of the monster living in my head
Lightning strikes twice at a lonely place nearby
It hit like an epiphany
Something said I knew that this would happen
When I got neck deep in crap stealing my attention
Now on the one hand I've got myself in trouble
And the other one's just empty

Wide-eyed and running fast, open arms are searching
Outstretched for love
Someone to hold you tight and tell you everything's gonna be ok
Don't give up and settle for any less, babygirl
You can find so much more
Everything will be ok

Fireworks and long walk on the beach
Are all fading with every breath I breathe
The more I'm trying to make myself hol don
The more I'm letting go
I think we all could have said that this would happen
10 months ago when I made the final arrangements
But somehow that really doesnt make it any easier
It doesn't take the pain away

Wide-eyed and running fast, open arms are searching
Outstretched for love
Someone to hold you tight and tell you everything's gonna be ok
Don't give up and settle for any less, babygirl
You can find so much more
Everything will be ok

Looking through the window
In the wall I've built around me
Trying to make it better
Wishing I could reach you
But my heartbeat skips
As I watch you glance away
And I see he's caught your eye

Wide-eyed and running fast, open arms are searching
Outstretched for love
Someone to hold you tight and tell you everything's gonna be ok
Don't give up and settle for any less, babygirl
You can find so much more
Everything will be ok
Doesn't the truth just sound so much different?
