A# G Dm Dm
And when I opened up the lid, I found the box was full of worms,
A# G Dm Dm
And worms were always as a kid the things I felt sorry for most,
A# G Dm Dm
As when you cut a worm in half, it still goes on without its head,
A# G Dm Dm
I still go on without my heart its just I wish that we were.
[Pre-Chorus]
A# G Dm Dm A# G Dm Dm
Open up to life and face the morning, (and say the things ive never said)
A# G Dm Dm A# G Dm Dm
When I wish the sea would rise and drown me, (I get the things I left instead)
[Chorus]
A# Dm C A# Gm Dm C A#
She said, Im not open to new ideas, and I don’t like to talk to children on the phone,
Gm Dm C A# Dm C A#
And I'm well, over self delusion, let me find a happy place to rest.
[Verse]
A# G Dm Dm
And when I opened up the top I found the box was full of words,
A# G Dm Dm
And words were always getting stuck they lose themselves behind the tears,
A# G Dm Dm
And tears are always coming loose, I find I need to get a grip,
A# G Dm Dm
D grip on something warm and living, like a human catalyst.
[Pre-Chorus]
A# G Dm Dm A# G Dm Dm
Open up to life and face the morning, (and say the things ive never said)
A# G Dm Dm A# G Dm Dm
When I wish the sea would rise and drown me, (I get the things I left instead)

And when I opened up the lid I found the room was full of girls,
A# G Dm Dm
And girls were always as a kid the things that scared us all the most,
A# G Dm Dm
And mostly I was scared of her, the one who saw through my disguise,
A# G Dm Dm
The one who saw that I was sore and wanted her to dry my eyes.
[Pre-Chorus]
A# G Dm Dm A# G Dm Dm
Open up to life and face the morning, (and say the things ive never said)
