"Open Book" lyrics - GNARLS BARKLEY

Eyes filled with fire
Wish I was a better liar
It hurts when it's happening, and so I cry
The winter is even colder
I guess that I could have told ya
That I am safe and warm from the hell inside

[Chorus:]
Karma (karma)
Take me (take me)
Karma (karma)
Break me
I am an open book

The drumbeat of my heart is tribal
Oh, the sweet sound of survival
Shouts serenade this forest, forevermore
The sun would have to be frozen
For anything out there opposing
Not to be left in its own blood on the jungle floor

[Chorus:]
Karma (karma)
Fight me (fight me)
Karma (karma)
Shake me
I am an open book
An open book

When I sing a song of peace
It soothes the savage beast
Even it understands that I understand, at least
So, you mortals just keep this in mind
This is the way I'm designed
And I am no coward, so I'll only die one time

[Chorus:]
Karma (karma)
Kill me (kill me)
You have (karma)
To kill me (kill me)
I am an open book
An open book

[Ad-libbing]
