Try
slowEarth Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm open wide
Open wide
Soul to feed
What you need
To believe
To touch the sky
The sky
You know why
Never Buy
Energize
Say goodnight
WHY TRY
Vaseline
In between
What you mean?
Never seen
WHITE LIE
In between
On your knees
Little tease
No one sees
Sometimes

I'm open wide
I left my heart outside
Try try try to take that away
Run away
With a little piece it won't go




With a little bit it won't go
With a little touch it won't go
