Election

lyrics by Kevin Max

I got a hole in my heart
and its shaped like you
I tried fitting other things inside it uh oh
but they gave me the flu

I’m tired of opening up
on a legalist couch
Just need a touch of the healing stuff 
from your Emerald Arms 

Open up open up open up real wide
open up open up let me step inside
open up open up open up your mind 
open up open let me see the light

I’m hoping for friendship
I’m leaning against it
I watch your reflections
I hope I’m elected by you

Everybody’s faking it
everybody’s doing just fine
but when you look inside their private lives
its just a basket of lies 

I’d rather hide out in bars
with the misfits and ghouls
then pretend I’ve found a home in that social club
with robotic and judgmental fools

Open up open up open up real wide….

I’m hoping for friendship 
I’m leaning against it
I watch your reflections 
I’m dreaming of bending the rules

(bridge)

stoke the fire thats deep inside
do not mix with narrow minds
keep the faith, walk in stride
never mind the cookie cutter kind

detach from greed, detach from success
till the soil that you feel is best ( don’t buy, don’t sell just take a rest )
stretch your eyes on pastoral skies
steer clear of jealousy that binds

Everybody’s down in the dark
chewing on the passion fruit 
but I’m out in the light I’ve got nothing to hide
and that is the truth

Open up open up open up real wide……
open up open up open up let me step inside
Ive got nothing to hide I’ve got nothing to hide
anarchy is an ideal…. anarchy is an ideal anarchy is an ideal
