So抦 all surrounded
By the things I thought I抎 put away
An抦 all surrounded
By the things I thought I抎 put away
An?there抯 a pile in the closet
That抯 where I threw some yesterday
Maybe under the rug
That抯 where I swept some the other day

So the mess is drawing forces
Outside I hear them say
(Just) come out with your hands up
So we can blow you away
And I walk out the door
Get blown wide open
By the things I抎 put away
And I wasn抰 even warned
Just blown wide open
By the mess is where I lay

So'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I抎 put away
So'm all surrounded
By the things I thought I抎 put away
And if I抦 a slob
I never looked at it that way
Irresponsible
When you抮e not the first to say

But I told her I抦 sorry
I never wanted it this way
Yeah, I still need her
But the mess won抰 go away
And I walk the door
Get blown wide open
By the things I抎 put away
And I抦 out on the porch
Just blown wide open
By the mess is where I lay
Yeah, blown wide open
Blown wide open
Blown wide open
Blown wide open
The gun抯 still smokin抋
Blood keeps flowin抋
Blown wide open
Blown wide open
[Why抯 she going]
All surrounded
