Open Your Mind - Ward Thomas

Closed like a coffee shop no one likes

Closed like an angry fist in a fight

Closed like a door that’s just been slammed

Like your narrow minded plans

Closed like a theme park with rusted rides

Old, broke and way behind the times

Closed like a poisoned apple smile

In your world of black and white

Open your mind

Wide as the sky, let it fly

Come as you are, it’s alright

You can love your neighbour as yourself

Or waste life blaming someone else forever

Closed like a child’s eyes when she’s afraid

Closed like a heart that will not change

Closed like the borders of your love

When you’re scared there’s not enough

Open your mind

Wide as the sky, let it fly

Come as you are, it’s alright

You can love your neighbour as yourself

Or waste life blaming someone else forever

I’m sending invitations

Everyone around

It’s a celebration

Won’t leave anybody out

I’m throwing a party

Instead of throwing stones

When we disagree

You teach me something I don’t know, no no

No, no, no

Open your mind

Wide as the sky, let it fly

Come as you are, it’s alright

You can love your neighbour as yourself

Or waste life blaming someone else forever

Open your mind

Wide as the sky, let it fly

Come as you are, it’s alright

You can love your neighbour as yourself

Or waste life blaming someone else forever, oh
