A Closed Mind Lyrics

They try to tell us that circles are squares

We say they're not, but they don't care

A few clicks and we drink it in

Familiar truth and we're safe again

It's hard to live on a razor blade

Where the truth can cut you, but that's OK

The scars might last, but they also fade

And it's so so hard to grow in the shade

In the shade

A closed mind

Is like a parachute

That plummets to the ground

Tangled up in itself

Unaware it's tumbling down

It falls without making a sound

We better open our minds

Before we all hit the ground

We better open our minds

Before we all hit the ground

A steady diet of hate and lies

Can cause a heart to shrivel and die

Ignorance can dull our minds

Like whiskey, beer and familiar wine

It's simple to live in a one room town

But solitude can bring you down

There's more to the world Than fits in one room

Let's change the channel and let ourselves bloom

Let's bloom

A closed mind

Is like a parachute

That plummets to the ground

Tangled up in itself

Unaware it's tumbling down

It falls without making a sound

We better open our minds

Before we all hit the ground

We better open our minds

Before we all hit the ground

Most days I don't know

And Some days I don't care

I just watch the dust flecks

Flying through the air

It's a long and lonely road

On the way to freeing a soul

But I know

It's the way I must go

A closed mind

Is like a parachute

That plummets to the ground

Tangled up in itself

Unaware it's tumbling down

It falls without making a sound

We better open our minds

Before we all hit the ground

We better open our minds

Before we all hit the ground
