[Intro]
Oh
Oh-oh

[Verse 1]
Nineteen seventy four
Staring at the wooden floor
Scared to see what sat upon the shelf
Thinking only of myself
Hidden under papers near the back
Caught in the trap

[Pre-Chorus]
It felt so wicked then
To find the lion's den
To be a man among the men

[Chorus]
Now it's all wide open
Open and wide
Now it's all wide open
With nowhere left to hide
They see my history
They see the mystery
Now it's all wide open
Wide open

[Verse 2]
Stodgy ministers in ties
Telling us such practiced lies
Saving all the children from the sight
While they tremble in the night
Blaming every proxy that they find
Keeping us blind

[Pre-Chorus]
It felt so wicked then
To find the lion's den
To be a man among the men

[Chorus]
Now it's all wide open
Open and wide
Now it's all wide open
With nowhere left to hide
They see my history
They see the mystery
Now it's all wide open
Wide open

[Bridge]
Brown paper bags
Nervous cash
Failing hearts
Failing pride
Now we clear the cache
Now we run and hide
Hide it away
Hide it away
Hide it away

[Chorus]
Now it's all wide open
Open and wide
Now it's all wide open
With nowhere left to hide
They see my history
They see the mystery
Now it's all wide open
Wide open
