Do you have time for
All of the lies that I’ve brought to your door
Thought I was careful
But it fell off the walls to the floor
And I don’t know what to do
But I don’t wanna do it all without you
It’s been such a long time
And I’ve never dealt with change
All that well
So it kills me to tell you
That I don’t know if I’m the same
Can you tell?
And I know that it's not true
I don't think I could do it all without you
And I don’t know what to do
But I know that it’s not home without you

Daisy Chain

Daisy chain
Stems intertwine, tethered to mine
It’s in our name
Roots digging deep in the earth
The ground still shakes
From a song that I couldn’t forget
But the notes have changed
Turned over fresh from the harvest
Five years on
Buildings the same, but the furniture’s changed
And you’re still gone
Turned a new leaf from the trees that
Still remain
Sway in the breath of all I have left
And the daisy chain
Keeps me from finding my way to you
Daisy chain
Stems intertwine, tethered to mine
Daisy chains
Roots buried deep from the flowers

Did you think that I would fail
Or are you surprised, cause I can’t tell
Thought I’d need time to get on track
But it’s two years on and I’m still a wreck
So at the end of all of this
It was all so meaningless
Does that go for all of us?
And it’s way too hard
When you’re tearing me apart
Can you not go that far?
I break so fast, I crack so clean
I'll be way too small to cause a scene
Take piece by piece til there's nothing left
Until there's air for me, I'll hold my breath
You should know by now
I never meant to let you down
I'll make it up somehow
So what are you gonna do?
Cause I'm terrified of telling you
Just how I wanna see this through
Bury me with the backyard daisies
Wheatfield, hayseeds
Backyard daisies
Oak and pine trees

Roots, Rivers

The ground I remember
With holes left in the field
The wounds from that September
Have finally healed
Slopes of broken boulders
Worn away from the climb
My world off my shoulders
No more wasting time
And no more pushing for answers
Now that I’m wide awake
I’m taking up my second chances
As old roots can decay
Vessels of you and me and water
Carve their way through the land
But while I’m still here I’m still othered
I won’t bite the feeding hand
So watch me sail on the river
Though I won’t be far away
The wind won’t make me shiver
But I won’t let things be the same

City Sounds

Window closed, city sounds
Whispers from downtown
In my room, hang around
Steady heart, heavy chest
Sore legs, deep breath
Wish this was painless
The rhythm of the streets
Feel so uncanny to me
But the warmth of your words
Is where I wanna be
Settle into all the noise
And blue lights from down the road
Hear the sound of your voice
Call this song my new home
The seeds have all been sewn
And the daisies all have grown
