Open Your Arms Songtext
von Rum

You exchanged experience for shyness,
You tread lightly on the land.
You entered the office with your head down,
The coming day was gonna be long.

Your voice is a whisper taken by the wind,
You wrote no story you didn′t even begin.
You held your mother and father oh so close,
You dug your own grave with the words you chose.

So open your arms,
Let the world in.
Your time's too short to shudder at the feel of your skin.

So open your arms,
Let the world in.
Your time′s too short to shudder at the feel of your skin.


You tie your laces on the pavement,
As life passes you by.
A penny for the moments you forget to savour,
You find your pennies more precious than your passing time.

Your voice is a whisper taken by the wind,
You wrote no story you didn't even begin.
You held your mother and father oh so close,
You dug your own grave with the words you chose.

So open your arms,
Let the world in.
Your time's too short to shudder at the feel of your skin.

So open your arms,
Let the world in.
Your time′s too short to shudder at the feel of your skin.

So open your arms,
Let the world in.
Your time′s too short to shudder at the feel of your skin.

So open your arms,
Let the world in.
Your time's too short to shudder at the feel of your skin.
