King of Foxes - Open Book

If I were a thing, I'd be an open book
With all of the pages in your mother tongue
It's not quite that I didn't see the wood
For all of the trees that block the sun

If I were the past, I'd be an open wound
You touch me there, I'll surely bleed
It's not all bad but that's a partial truth
And that's not the best of me

Empathy doesn't make you good
And good doesn't mean you're right
Well I've been gutted by both so I know what that's like
Love is not a test we take
No, this is not a drill
I once thought love is a record and I do still
So play me as you will...

Just like a boat out on the open sea
So far from the safest shore
This is the ride that I stood in line for
These are the waves I was built for
This is the ride that I stood in line for
These are the waves I was built for...

Experience doesn't make you good
If life hasn't made you kind
Well I've stood on the shoulders of both so I know what I'd find

Love is not a test we take
No, this is not a drill
I once thought
Love is a record and I do still
So play me as you will...

I once thought
Love is a record and I do still
So play me as you will...

I once thought
Love is a record and I do still
So play me as you will
