You
gotta stop this bleeding,
you gotta dump my pain
You gotta keep me from believing
that this whole damn world's insane
Can't blame it on the preacher,
can't blame it on the judge
Can't hand it to another
when that other bears a grudge
I wouldn't sell you a lie
How could I keep you from the truth?
Or cross my heart and hope to die?
No, I don't have the proof
I'm wild open, living wild open
I couldn't do it any other way
I'm wild open,
nothing left unspoken
Not another word I want to say
I'm falling out with reason,
being nice to speculate
Can't think too busy dancing
down this racist age of fate
Can't blame the politician
for his grip on common man
Only voting for a color
and a never changing plan
But I wouldn't sell you a lie
How could I keep you from the truth?
Cross my heart and hope to die
No, I don't have the proof
I'm wide open, living wide open
I couldn't do it any other way
I'm wilder , but
nothing left to falter
Not another word I want to say
It's just another day
I couldn't do other way
I'm wet up, but living wet up,
but I couldn't I it any other way
I'm wide open
Nothing left unspoken
Not another word I wanna say
I'm wide open
Living wide open
I couldn't do it any other way
Wide open
Nothing left unspoken
And another word I want to
say
Just another day
An d another
word I want to say
Oh, no, no
I couldn't do it any other way
It's just another day
Oh, just another day
Oh yeah, got to stop this bleeding,
got to dull my pain
Got to keep my faith,
but nothing's going down
the wrong way
Mmm, nothing left to see
You
