Open Your Mind

Closed like a coffee shop no one likes
Closed like an angry fist in a fight
Closed like a door that’s just been slammed
Like your narrow minded plans
Closed like a theme park with rusted rides
Old, broke and way behind the times
Closed like a poisoned apple smile
In your world of black and white
Open your mind
Wide as the sky, let it fly
Come as you are, it’s alright
You can love your neighbour as yourself
Or waste life blaming someone else forever
Closed like a child’s eyes when she’s afraid
Closed like a heart that will not change
Closed like the borders of your love
When you’re scared there’s not enough
Open your mind
Wide as the sky, let it fly
Come as you are, it’s alright
You can love your neighbour as yourself
Or waste life blaming someone else forever
I’m sending invitations
Everyone around
It’s a celebration
Won’t leave anybody out
I’m throwing a party
Instead of throwing stones
When we disagree
You teach me something I don’t know, no no
No, no, no
Open your mind
Wide as the sky, let it fly
Come as you are, it’s alright
You can love your neighbour as yourself
Or waste life blaming someone else forever
Open your mind
Wide as the sky, let it fly
Come as you are, it’s alright
You can love your neighbour as yourself
Or waste life blaming someone else forever, oh
