Leave It Open

With my ego in my gut,
My babbling mouth would wash it up
(But now I've started learning how)
I keep it shut

My door was never locked,
'Til one day a trigger come cocking
(But now I've started learning how)
I keep it shut

My eyes would creep and dust
things that decay things that rust
(But now I've started learning how)
I keep them shut
I keep them shut

Harm is in us
(Harm in us, but power to arm)
Harm is in us
Leave it open
(Harm in us, but power to arm)

Narrow mind would persecute it,
Die a little to get to it
(But now I've started learning how)
I leave it open
I kept it in a cage,
Watched it weeping, but I made it stay.
(But now I've started learning how)
I leave it open
I leave it open

Harm is in us
(Harm in us, but power to arm)
Leave it open
(Here we are, he we are)

(What you letting in?)
(Tell me what you're letting in)
(Say what we're gonna let in!)

 We let the weirdness in
