Open Arms Lyrics by ​Wilt (IRL)

Bastinado

2000

[Verse 1]
I'm waking up, it's half past ten
And I can't remember anything about the way we met
And if I ask you questions try to tag along
Because I need to be reminded of where it all went wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm holding on to what I've got today
And maybe you'll forget to walk away
[Chorus]
But I thought I told you when
I can drink inside of hell
And I know there's not a single way to fight it
Could you blame me for the tears
When you've never felt the fear?
And your mind is closing in without a way through
[Verse 2]
And now and then I like to dance and sing along
But I see through all the emptiness
To fool myself no more
So I'll try to take you back with open arms
To hold me on the wagon when I fall
[Chorus]
But I thought I told you when
I can drink inside of hell
And I know there's not a single way to fight it
Could you blame me for the tears
When you've never felt the fear?
And your mind is closing in without a way through
[Bridge]
'Cause I'm holding on to what I've got today
And maybe you'll forget to walk away
Without you, my crutch, I'll surely disappear
And with a puff of smoke I'll go and you'll be clear
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm holding on to what I've got today
And maybe you'll forget to walk away
[Chorus]
But I thought I told you when
I can drink inside of hell
And I know there's not a single way to fight it
Could you blame me for the tears
When you've never felt the fear?
And your mind is closing in without a way through
