Lyrics: I got a sunflower I got a fake smile on my face I come from a good family Written with anxiety, behind the love there's so much hurt that you can't see. I would spend every day in the waves, tossing in the turbulence But I depend on the lines in the sand I draw them to help me plan for my head & my heart for my head & my heart to Stay together I have trouble quieting the chaos in my mind Stay together I don’t want my heart to carry all the consequence I found a boy in a tiny box We met up and now he sends me home with plants They sit on my windowsill Drinking in the sunshine till the clouds roll in I get caught pondering the possibilities of having what I want get ripped from me So I try not to let my mind go wild My heart is sitting here in exile Oh why can’t they just Oh why can’t they just Work together I have trouble quieting the chaos in my mind Work together I don’t want my heart to carry all the consequence I had a dream, I had a dream That my heart was free I had a dream, I had a dream That my mind was empty And they Lived together Not one trouble crowding crashing clouding my mind They Lived together I could breathe well knowing that my heart had love to give

Lyrics: He put his hand on the small of my back and pressed his lips to the nape of my neck a fleeting moment of touch towards the bitter end Real fucking sad I remember it exactly Standing over a box of vinyls while I watched them start to build a life together All I had was a hand on my back, nape of my neck. We fell out of love in that antique store up north We fell out of love when you never thought to bring me flowers We fell out of love when I started to get anxious about making conversations We fell Out of it Our favorite podcast just started back up it's hard to listen without imagining being in your truck, crossing state lines doing something wrong when everything felt right Now I curse your name and so do my friends Oh what a shame you don't even know what you did to me Can't you see you're a bumble bee, but the kind that stings We fell out of love when you went to the beach while I was crying We fell out of love when I never got to meet you Mama we fell out of love when you said it should be over with that dumb chip on your shoulder and we had to say goodbye in the same way we said hello fin.

Filmed and edited by Wesley Verge Lyrics: When I was younger I daydreamed under bright blue skies Climbing too high in the trees so I could be closer to the clouds Did you ever read fairy tales? And imagine yourself right there in the story with princes and GLORY I want to know… every dream you dared, every thought you shared. What color was your old childhood room? Where’s this gonna go? I know it’s far from slow interlude I’m older and wiser now, some might say all daydreamed out Surrounded by concrete I Can’t look up to see the clouds, I’m being weighed down But there’s some sort of magic in you We’re going through life, but it’s also this movie that I never saw coming And I want to know… every dream you dared, every thought you shared. What kind of snacks did you eat after school? Where’s this gonna go? I know it’s far from slow interlude Will you mold with me while I take the time to find myself? Will you hold me on the nights I can’t stop crying? I don’t know why those happen sometimes Stay out in the sun too long I get tired You don’t need to promise I don’t need an answer Every waking hour with you makes my heart beat faster I’ll know when, I’ll know when I’ll know when it’s true Interlude

Lyrics: They cut down my elm tree today My mother and I were away My sister watched from the window as they cut our elm tree down I haven’t seen my friends in awhile Nothing more than a virtual smile ‘Cuz we closed our doors and we stay inside them, but God I miss my friends What do you do when the sidewalks have cleared? And the light stays green? And there’s so much fear? What do you say when you’re not face to face? And you can’t replace all those countless hours and days? I inhale... then exhale… Try to inhale... and exhale We made it through another day I sat out on my fire escape last night I’d never seen the moon give off so much light We need some light What do you do when the sidewalks have cleared? And the light stays green? And there’s so much fear? What do you say when you’re not face to face? And you can’t replace all those countless hours and days? I inhale... then exhale Try to inhale... and exhale We made it through another day
