lyrics

Wary of first light
Creeping up my face
Until there's creases for eyes
Leaving no room for hate

Ahhh

Though the flowers have died
Purple like the sun
Tracing across the sky
Just as the day is done

Ahhh
Ahhh
Ahhh
Ahhh

Hear me open in heart
Broken, yet unafraid
Crawling to make art
Where the shatters remain

Ah Ah Ah….


Well whaddya know
Once the moment has passed
It won't be re-lived
That ember can't last

Sure it circles around, it will return
Met with a flame that no longer burns

Straight out of your lips and into my ears
At a standstill paralyzed by fear


Well whaddya know
Once the moment has passed
It won't be re-lived
That ember can't last

Sure it circles around, it will return
Met with a flame that no longer burns

Straight out of your lips and into my ears
At a standstill paralyzed by fear

Those monsters are gonna get you!

Oooooo

Fear me, open in heart
Broken, yet unashamed
Crawling to make art
Where the shatters once laid




I can pull my own weight
I'm as strong as an ox
But 12 metric tons of feathers would need a gigantic box
And there's no way in hell my arms could reach around to carry
All this deadweight I'm expected to bury
But you're fine just keep swimming with that box on your head
Gulping up habits you knew to be dead
But no they're just rolling around in their bed
Laughing at your existential dread As you tread
You can feel it in your gut, you can feel it in your chest
And the only explanation is that you're really very stressed
“But you're so young what do you got to be stressed about?
Life's too short”
