Spring days will always bring the shame
The flowers bloom while I just stay the same
Was I planted wrong or, am I in the wrong soil?
I never grow even when I see the sun
Begun to think there's somewhere I went wrong
My roots are watered but the stem is broken

And I do
Try to
Feel alive but it's been far too long

Envious of the trees when they grow
No one gets mad and says they're slow for taking their time to feel so brand new
Jealous of the wind and the way it flows it's got no real place to go
No built in curfew
No pressure to be brand new

Time hasn't healed it's just passed
I've been glued to the ground I've always had
No room for armour cause the blows just hit harder
But I don't have a bruise to show
There's some things that only you can know
Being outspoken can become poison

And I do
Try to
Feel alive but it's been far too long

Envious of the trees when they grow
No one gets mad and says they're slow for taking their time to feel so brand new
Jealous of the wind and the way it flows it's got no real place to go
No built in curfew no pressure to be brand new

Envious of the trees when they grow
No one gets mad and says they're slow for taking their time to feel so brand new
Jealous of the wind and the way it flows it's got no real place to go
No built in curfew no pressure to be brand new
