Down To The Minute (Alves) Open my heart and I'm dumb, what can I say? Open my heart and I'm one, one in the same. Open my eye and I cry. This can't be me. Oh, and I die when I try. Down, down to the minute. Something that I fear deep in my heart. It's a crime, hope I don't do it. I'd hand it over in a matter of time. I don't care if I'm right, gotta be me. It's a given right. I need room to breathe. Open up wide and I sigh. Why can't they see? Oh, how I die when I try. Down to the minute... You can't save me tonight. It wouldn't be real now. You can show me a light but I have to chase it down. I stay dry and I cry. Let me be me. Oh, how I die when I try. Down to the minute... Lyrics reprinted by permission. BACK
