The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

That bastard had a head like a matchstick

Face like he was sucking concrete through a straw

Some faces not even a mother can love

Says the spit and spatter of broken glass from above

There's a tombstone where your headboard used to be

They tell him every night before sleep

Every night before he dreams big and comes complete

Then he sees himself floating high above the certainty of his feet

Sees some gutless worm

Seeking a free ride inside the stomach of a whale

He can live without air for several days, he says

He says he knows things, this man, he says

He says he wouldn't wait for the light or the dark to fade

He says you'll want to move for the mouths of the damned elite

Their bodies are open

Their channels are open

This world is opening up

Up, up, up

Yeah, I'm good for whatever

The other smiles convinced

Tell me what's best and when. I'll save the date

I'll set the tone, I'll wander in my sleep

They each raise a glass and clang

Here's to what will

Here's to the sharpened pencil

Splitting the cast from the skin

Curing the itch, curling the toes

Here's to celebrity and fulfillment

Here's to the top of the world

Here's to a tired leaning wall

Here's to the tragedy to ensue

Their bodies are open

Their channels are open

This world is opening up

Up, up, up

Their bodies are open

Their channels are open

This world is opening up

Up, up, up, up, up

Today's gonna feel like tomorrow, some day

Tomorrow's gonna feel like yesterday

This world is opening up

This world is opening up

Today's gonna feel like tomorrow today

(This world is opening up)

Tomorrow's gonna feel like yesterday

Today's gonna feel like tomorrow today

(This world is opening up)

Tomorrow's gonna feel like yesterday

Today's gonna feel like tomorrow today

(This world is opening up)

Tomorrow's gonna feel like

Gonna feel like

(This world is opening up)

It's gonna feel like

(This world is opening up)

It's gonna feel like

It's gonna feel like

(This world is opening up)

It's gonna feel like

It's gonna feel like
