The Velvet Teen - Into the Open lyrics

Cry, child

Try to be bigger than me

You'll see just how fast it all comes around

You'll never be much

Daddy holds my head when I sleep

Sings me songs that his father once penned for him

You'll never be much

You'll never be much of anything

Into the open air

Into your smiling mug

Into the open air to prove you're the top

Out of the fierce parade

Into your smiling mug

Into the open air to prove you're the top

Some days you don't want to get out of bed

So you don't and everyone gets ahead in the world

You'll never be much

Some says the only thought that consoles your tired head at the close of another day is

You'll never be much

You'll never be much of anything

Into the open air

Into your smiling mug

Into the open air to prove you're the top

Out of the fierce parade

Into your smiling mug

Into the open air to prove you're the top
