Lyrics
There's endless possibilities The moment we leave the womb Endless possibilities But we're never satisfied It's who we are It's human nature Learning to live Learning to breathe Learning to be all we wanted to be And we wonder if there is a reason If we're open... to all that life has Leaping in faith as we drop the mask Open, content in our skin Hoping for Heaven and living in sin Hoping we've only begun To see the truth in whatever will come Open, with heart on the sleeve There's no use fighting biology Just like a refugee We take what we're given Then we burn it in effigy When we can't eat the fruit that's forbidden It's who we are Human nature Learning to give Learning to try Without any wings Yet we're yearning to fly Just beginning to understand If we're open... to all that life has Leaping in faith as we drop the mask Open, content in our skin Hoping for Heaven and living in sin Cause we're open, unsure of ourselves Waiting for God at the wishing well Open, with heart on the sleeve There's no use fighting biology Is who you are, who you thought you'd be?

I've heard this one many time, and not just because it kicks the album off. There's something about this that really gets under my skin and sticks with me long after each play.

Perfection in Prog is what this is, a radio ready exercise in brilliant poetic songwriting Matt!
