DAWA - Open up - Lyrics:
I needed to mention
How, how did you lose track of your intention
Desperately waiting in the sun for some rain
Turn your coat inside out and maybe you will wash it out
your dried up stains
Open up, feel the push and open up
Open up, feel the push and open up
I needed to mention
How, how much you love to aim at perfection
let´s see what it´s all about and maybe you will turn around
and walk the other way
Maybe it´s not so bad don´t you look away and try instead to
see who you are
Open up, feel the push and open up
Open up, feel the push and open up
