Open Sesame

Verse 1

Door was shut for twenty years

I pressed my palm against the cold

Something in the lock said try me

Something in my chest said go

Pre-Chorus

Turn the handle turn the handle

Feel the hinges start to scream

Turn the handle turn the handle

I've been waiting in a dream

Chorus

Open sesame

Let the whole thing fall apart

Open sesame

I was born to break the dark

Open sesame

Say the words and watch it fly

Open sesame

Nothing's gonna hold me now

Post-Chorus

Open open open sesame

Open open open sesame

Verse 2

Every wall I built was holy

Every brick a little prayer

Now I'm kicking down the silence

Breathing all the open air

Pre-Chorus

Turn the handle turn the handle

Feel the hinges start to scream

Turn the handle turn the handle

I've been waiting in a dream

Chorus

Open sesame

Let the whole thing fall apart

Open sesame

I was born to break the dark

Open sesame

Say the words and watch it fly

Open sesame

Nothing's gonna hold me now

Post-Chorus

Open open open sesame

Open open open sesame

Bridge

Say it loud say it proud say it once and never twice

I command the stones to listen

I command the dark to rise

Open wide open wide

Let the morning in my eyes

Chorus

Open sesame

Let the whole thing fall apart

Open sesame

I was born to break the dark

Open sesame

Say the words and watch it fly

Open sesame

Nothing's gonna hold me now

Post-Chorus

Open open open sesame

Open open open sesame

Open sesame
