about
About how it's nice to be able to block out certain things in your life. Enjoy sitting in silence or darkness once and a while; be with your thoughts, alone.
lyrics
There was a man with no eyelids on the streets of Las Vegas, Nevada.
I asked him “how do you sleep when the light’s like a fiery armada.”
And he said “son, don’t close your eyes see how I live every day of my life.”
I said, “man it must be tough to sneeze with your eyes wide open.”
Eyes wide open forever, I won’t try it and I’d never trade any sum of money for the ability to turn the world around me off.
Eyes wide open forever. I love seeing stuff that I wanna see, and vice versa on the contrary.
I met a girl with no hands on the streets of New York, New York.
I asked her “how do you live with the noise like a war.”
And she said “babe don’t cover your ears, see how I live every day of the year.”
I said, “man it must be hard with all these annoying people.”
Ears wide open forever, I won’t have it and I’d never trade any sum of money for the ability to turn the world around me off.
Ears wide open forever. I love hearing stuff that I wanna hear, and vice versa au contraire.
But I can’t close my mouth; there’s a flaw in that ability. The wrong words they slip out. I might trade that for some money.
It’s nice to have control of what comes in, but the opposite is harder. Now I’ll keep my vocal cords.
There lives a man with no fear in a condo in Naples, in Florida.
I ask him “how do you live without being scared.”
And he says, “son, I’m not really sure, I just haven’t any inhibitions.”
I said, “man it must be nice that way.”
Life wide open forever, I don’t have it and I’d surely trade any sum of money for the ability to rid of all my anxieties.
Life wide open, and I’m okay but I’ve been better the other way.
