I'm So Open
Embracing Life's Journey: I'm So Open by Cowboy Junkies
Lyrics
Just outside there waiting.
There's something outside, waiting.
Just outside the circle.
Outside a particular boundary or group.
Waiting for that finger to point your way.
A sense of anticipation for attention or direction.
Just keep running. Just keep running.
Suggesting continuous movement or escape.
New ones quickly burning.
New experiences fading fast while old ones disappear.
Old ones die away.
Old experiences or memories fading.
Fires lit to say goodbye or hello.
Symbolic fires lit for farewells or greetings.
Which way you looking? Which way you looking?
Questioning the direction of focus or attention.
Count all wounds that brought you here.
Reflecting on past hurts or scars.
Lay your blessings end to end.
Acknowledging and arranging one's positive moments.
Rid yourself of all regrets
Letting go of all past regrets.
Because here is where it all begins.
Emphasizing that this moment marks a new start.
A bumbler's game, a cheaters wheel
Life seen as unpredictable and influenced by chance.
Where the winner pays the highest cost.
Success comes with significant sacrifice.
You've laid your marker now watch the ball.
Having made a decision, awaiting the outcome.
Hold your breath its about to fall.
Anxious anticipation for a resolution or result.
Just outside there waiting.
Reiterating the presence of something waiting outside.
Just outside the circle.
Outside a circle, suggesting exclusion or separation.
Waiting there is someone i don't know who.
A mysterious presence is waiting.
I'm so open, i'm so open.
Expressing vulnerability or transparency.
I don't sleep most nights,
Difficulty in sleeping, spending nights awake.
Just lie awake and count my blessings.
Reflecting on positive aspects during sleepless nights.
I'll take this endless life
Accepting a seemingly purposeless life.
Of perfect pointless mornings.
Content with mundane, directionless mornings.
I'll hold you till the morning comes
Commitment to providing support until morning arrives.
'Cause it's all that i can do.
Expressing limited capability in the given circumstance.
I'm so open. I'm so open.
Reiteration of vulnerability or openness.
I don't like these last goodbyes.
Discomfort with parting moments or farewells.
I don't like goodbyes.
Expressing a dislike for goodbyes.
