Letra Bossa Nova Corps - Origami Angel

Bossa Nova Corps

Every time I open up my eyes
I see you
Standing at the precipice of everlasting happiness that lives inside of you
Things I’ll never get to touch or hear or feel or see
Things that just weren’t made for me
I guess it wasn’t meant to be
But every time you open up your mouth
I see verbs, adjectives and colors flying out into the world
So that they’re there to be observed
Trying hard to get themselves into somebody’s brain
Then they’ll never be the same
It always happens in that way
But every time I open up my eyes
My eyes
My eyes
My eyes
It’s almost like you never wanna act like you knew me when I was nobody
And nowadays, it’s harder not to feel like someone new
I don’t see what you see in me, like I’m some sort of deity
An elephant in any room, I’m living in a zoo
The thought of being locked inside a room behind a barricade
Is getting comfortable and now I don’t know what to do
'Cause I don’t think anything’s changed
It’s almost like you never wanna act like you knew me when I was nobody
And nowadays, it’s harder not to feel like someone new
I don’t see what you see in me, like I’m some sort of deity
An elephant in any room, I’m living in a zoo
The thought of being locked inside a room behind a barricade
Is getting comfortable and now I don’t know what to do
'Cause I don’t think anything’s changed
But every time I open up my eyes
