Sounds Like: Life Blown Open sounds like the moment when all that’s left of her is the emptiness you feel when she’s not around. Life Blown Open sounds like the small victories. Life Blown Open sounds like the crushing defeats. Life Blown Open sounds like the elation of an exciting new friendship. Life Blown Open sounds like the thrill of coming up with a new idea. Soaring birds, a cool summer breeze, bike rides, snow forts, standing on top of a mountain. Life Blown Open sounds like these things. Life Blown Open sounds like the atomization and subsequent re-integration of everything you’ve ever felt.
