Worms

[Verse 1]
And when I opened up the lid, I found the box was full of worms
And worms were always, as a kid, the things I felt sorry for most
As when you cut a worm in half, it still goes on without its head
I still go on without my heart, it's just I wish that we would

[Chorus]
Open up to life and face the morning, and say the things you never said
When I wish the sea would rise and drown me, I get the things I left instead

[Post-Chorus]
She said: "I'm not open to new ideas, and I don't like to talk to children on the phone
And I'm well over self-confusion, let me find a happy place to rest!"

[Verse 2]
And when I opened up the top, I found the box was full of words
And words were always getting stuck, they lose themselves behind the tears
And tears are always coming loose, I find I need to get a grip
A grip on something warm and living, like a human catalyst!

[Chorus]
Open up to life and face the morning, and say the things you never said
When I wish the sea would rise and drown me, I get the things I left instead

[Post-Chorus]
She said: "I'm not open to new ideas, and I don't like to talk to people on the phone
And I'm well over self-confusion, let me find a happy place to rest!"

[Verse 3]
And when I opened up the lid, I found the room was full of girls
And girls were always, as a kid, the things that scared us all the most
And mostly I was scared of hurting one who saw through my disguise
The one who saw that I was sore and wanted her to dry my eyes!

[Chorus]
Open up to life and face the morning, and say the things you never said
And when I wish the sea would rise and drown me, I get the things I left instead!

[Post-Chorus]
She said: "I'm not open to new ideas, and I don't like to talk to children on the phone
And I'm well over self-delusion, let me find a happy place to rest!"

[Outro]
Oh-oh, let me find a happy place to rest
Oh-oh, let me find a happy place
I know that there's a happy place
I know that there's some kind of place called home
Called home
Called home
Called home
