Squirm - Live at John Paul Jones Arena, Charlottesville, VA, 11.19.10

Please find your place
Though the room grows scarce
Once we're all inside
The service can begin
For a moment, if you please
Forget what you believe
And naked you will see
That we are all the same

The power of your kiss
Your words, your lips
Your flesh, your bones
Exactly what you need
Your flesh and bones
Exactly what you need

Why should I feel intrusion?
Why be afraid of what we do not understand?
To eliminate exclusion
We will cut out your differences
You'll feel like you belong

Drum beats louder
Drum beats louder
Drum beats louder
Drum beats louder

Open up your head
Open up, you primitive
Open up your mouth, and
Open up your head
Scream, sweet primitive
Tell me what you said
Tell me what you said

Out there with no food, or drink
How many days do you think
You'd last with all the
Diamonds and the pearls?
I'm not a king, no
I'm not a hero
And I'm not a fool
I'm not perfect
Just flesh and bones
I'm exactly what you need

Drum beats louder

Open up your head
Open up you primitive
Open up your mouth, and
Open up your head
Scream, sweet primitive
Tell me what you said
Oh, it's coming out
Open up your head
Yeah

The power of your kiss
Your words, your lips
There's not a gun to your head
But you're gonna die before you're dead
It's not sad when you're gone
But when your light's still on
And your wings won't let you fly
Don't be dead before you die

Hunger 'til fed
Give love instead
'Cause when love gets inside
You feel the dead man squirm
Above all things
If kindness is your king
Then heaven will be yours
Before you meet your end

Open up your head
Open up you primitive
Open up your mouth
It's coming out
Open up your head, yeah
Open up your head
Scream, sweet primitive
Tell me what you said
Tell me what you said
Open up your head, your head, your head, ooh

Can you hear what I'm saying
Had a dream how I
And I was falling like a pool
I was falling fast
And I could not be pursued
And the man called out, he said
Come my son, I've got you
Come my son, I've got you
Come my son, I've got you
