Ferns 04:12
Growing ferns in my room Just to switch up the view And they're oh so tall They hold up all my walls I'm sure that if I leave they would freeze So I'll stay inside just staring out my blinds Wishing that I had Attenborough's life I don't want to talk about it anymore I don't wanna wonder what's outside that door I don't want to talk about it anymore Reiterating all the days that were better There's only so many ways To separate the days And I'm sure that before noon tomorrow I'll have found another way that I've plateaued So if you call me again I don't know if I'll pretend That I know this is the end I don't want to talk about it anymore I don't wanna wonder what's outside that door I don't want to talk about it anymore Reiterating all the days that were better

Lawn Gone 03:47
Let the windows down I don't want my voice to be the only sound Colours seem so bright When they're bathed in the glow of afternoon light So if you're feeling down and I've not skipped town Then can I come around Can I come around We can get away Slip out the back and make our escape They won't notice we're gone 'til the cops have moved on So let's sneak past the sirens Out on the lawn So why should I care If you're not there It doesn't matter anyway 'Cause right by your side I will stay Until my body rusts and decays And I'm starting to dread That it's all in my head And I'm stuck sleeping in my twin-sized bed So kiss me slowly I won't forget The way your hands hold the back of my neck So why should I care If you're not there It doesn't matter anyway 'Cause right by your side I will stay Until my body rusts and decays Now all these broken parts of me I don't think they want to leave

Onodirim 03:36
A tree fell down outside my house this morning It fell without warning As it hit the ground It was old as I am In the afternoon And it made me wonder Will I go soon Everyone who saw it said "It looked fine" "It was in its prime" "Never coming down" But you and I we both know different It was something inside Rotten, alone Eating time And as I watched the moment it came down I was holding the axe There was no one insight And in that moment I'm sure I fell too Do I bury the hatchet Does it matter at all Maybe I've snapped like some low hanging branch Holding onto its last piece of fruit The neighbours all know I'm sure they saw As I killed the last thing On our block And then I watched the moment it came down I was holding the axe There was no one insight And in that moment I'm sure I fell too Do I bury the hatchet Does it matter at all So let's burn the whole thing Let the ashes move on They'll all forget you By the time the embers cool off
