Open Up
Matt Simons Lyrics

You're hard to talk to
It's tough to have a conversation with you

With that wall around you
You're keeping me at a distance with an emotional barrier

Don't look at me that way
Your expression is making me feel uneasy

What can I do
I'm willing to take action to solve our communication problem

To build that bridge to find you?
To establish a connection between us so I can truly understand you

I don't know what to say
I'm at a loss for words and need your help to break down the wall

Come on and open up, open up my love
Please share your emotions with me, my love

Why don't you tell me what's really on your mind?
Be honest and tell me your true thoughts and feelings

Tell me what you need so we don't have this fight
Let me know what you require from me to stop this argument and have a better relationship

I know it's a front you've been hiding behind
I'm aware that you're using a facade to conceal your true self

I know you want to
I perceive that you intend to

Do that thing you always do
Your usual behavior in this scenario

You get in your head
You're overthinking the situation

When that door stays shut
When you don't let me get through to you

It puts this space between us
It affects our intimacy and connection

You make it hard to guess
You're not making it easy for me to understand your perspective

I don't believe the last thing that I said's
I have doubts that the last conversation we had is the root of the problem

The real reason you're so upset
There may be another source of your anger and hurt

And open up
Let your guard down

(Come on and open up)
Please show me a more vulnerable side

Yeah, open up
Unveil your true self to me

(Come on and open up)
I promise to listen and understand

And open up
Expose your inner feelings
