every green

here's the church
here's the steeple
and goddamn all you damn
i feel wild and i feel free
now that i dont care how you feel about me
because i've been hitting every green
and if pretty soon i won't be
that's alright with me
i've been picking
up the pieces
of this hot
and tragic season
and im planning
on escaping
i'm just hoping
it's not raining
i'm not preparing for bad weather
when I pull myself together
no i'll be hitting every green
and if you don't believe just watch me
i'll be hitting every green i see

if you want flowers
start planting some seeds
if you wanna feel lighter
try not eating meat
if you want black blacker
stop trying to see
if you wanna feel closer
just talk to me
because i'm growing older
this coffee is cold
the skies full on fire
the suns hanging low
whether i'm falling
whether i bleed
i'm running for
that fire at full speed
stop putting your pushpins
onto my sleeves
because i don't feel normal
so don't say that to me
could we stop talking
because i'm just trying to think?
can we just sit here
without having to speak?
because i'm growing older
this coffee is cold
the skies full on fire
that suns hanging low
whether i'm falling
whether i bleed
i'm running for
that fire at full speed
stop putting your pushpins
onto my sleeves
because i don't feel normal
so don't say that to me

how come

i'm a piece of work
you're a work of art
and just last night
i saw a shooting star
but it's only one
and it's not enough
i'm still looking up
pushing my luck
about those stars
they're nice from afar
and you might want
to go where they are
but they're burning hot
so you better not
how come you always want
more than you got
there's no guarantees
but it's a safe bet
you're getting somewhere
but you're not there yet
and every time
you take two steps
you'll see a couple
more ahead
and if you wanna see stars
i'll buy us a car
you better believe
we'll take it real far
because now i got
a pocket full
of lucky coins
and pixie dust
i got lot's of love
but it's not enough
i'm still looking up
pushing my luck
there's no guarantees
but it's a safe bet
that you're getting somewhere
you're just not there yet
and every time
you take two steps
you'll see a couple
more ahead

closed my eyes
dreamt of a house
it had more
rooms than i could count
endless stairways
leading down
going deep
into the ground
i've been dreaming
of these new rooms
i'll likely
never walk through
and if i do
will i see you there?
on stairs
growing out of thin air
before i'm blinded
by my own hell
i'll paint pictures
of heaven itself
closed my eyes
dreamt of a house
it had more
rooms than i could count
took my time
stumbling around
if you dont mind
i'll see myself out
before i'm blinded
by my own hell
i'll paint pictures
of heaven itself
closed my eyes
dreamt of a house
it had more
rooms than i could count
took my time
stumbling around
if you dont mind
i'll see myself out
