Blown Wide Open
[Verse 1]
So I'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I put away
And I'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I put away
And there's a pile in the closet
That's where I threw some yesterday
Maybe under the rug
That's where I swept some the other day
[Pre-Chorus]
So the mess is drawing forces
Outside I hear them say
Just come out with your hands up
So we can blow you away
[Chorus]
And I walk out the door
Get blown wide open
By the things I put away
And I wasn't even warned
Just blown wide open
Now the mess is where I lay
[Verse 2]
So I'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I put away
So I'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I put away
And if I'm a slob
Well I never looked at it that way
Irresponsible
Well you're not the first to say
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I told her I'm sorry
I never wanted it this way
Yeah, I still need her
But the mess won't go away
[Chorus 2]
And I walk the door
Get blown wide open
By the things I put away
And I'm out on the porch
Just blown wide open
Now the mess is where I lay
[Bridge]
[Outro]
Yeah, blown wide open
Blown wide open
Blown wide open
Blown wide open
The gun's still smokin'
Blood keeps flowin'
Blown wide open
Blown wide open
While she's going
All surrounded
So I'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I put away
And I'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I put away
And there's a pile in the closet
That's where I threw some yesterday
Maybe under the rug
That's where I swept some the other day
[Pre-Chorus]
So the mess is drawing forces
Outside I hear them say
Just come out with your hands up
So we can blow you away
[Chorus]
And I walk out the door
Get blown wide open
By the things I put away
And I wasn't even warned
Just blown wide open
Now the mess is where I lay
[Verse 2]
So I'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I put away
So I'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I put away
And if I'm a slob
Well I never looked at it that way
Irresponsible
Well you're not the first to say
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I told her I'm sorry
I never wanted it this way
Yeah, I still need her
But the mess won't go away
[Chorus 2]
And I walk the door
Get blown wide open
By the things I put away
And I'm out on the porch
Just blown wide open
Now the mess is where I lay
[Bridge]
[Outro]
Yeah, blown wide open
Blown wide open
Blown wide open
Blown wide open
The gun's still smokin'
Blood keeps flowin'
Blown wide open
Blown wide open
While she's going
All surrounded
