What did you do with our plant child?
Sometimes, I wonder if you still have it on your windowsill
You probably threw it out
It's sitting in a pile of garbage somewhere, dead
Or, maybe it's bigger now
Rooted somewhere among the waste
I hear it's good to put things like orange peels and apple cores in the forest
It helps things grow in its decomposition
I know you've planted yourself in her instead now
Our plant child better be rooted somewhere else too

I still feel your hand on my lower back
I still see you dressed up in all black
You kiss my cheek and whisper
how you notice that I'm so happy
My eyes light up the room when I'm with you
But have you noticed?
I might not be quite ready for you darling
Tie me down, although I won't be leaving soon
I just want you now
You make me wait with patience
As you see right through my heavy breath
You know this is an act but you continue to devour my neck
My lips burn down the house when I'm with you
But have you noticed?
I might not be quite ready for you darling
I don't think I'm quite ready for you darling
I'm not ready for you darling

Our Building

The windows were cracked a little bit
They were letting secrets out and letting secrets in
Our building was falling to the ground
But we kept our muscles tight and wouldn't let it down
Aren't the ceilings beautiful
The paintings are brand new
Even though I tried
Our building's not the home for you
You still have my heart, it may always be yours
But if you find another you can leave mine at the door
They tell me to just get through the night
But everything is empty, everything is quiet
Our building is falling to the ground
And I'm inside alone while you let it all come down
All of this was beautiful
The walls were painted blue
Even though I tried
Our building's not the home for you
You still have my heart, it may always be yours
But if you find another you can leave mine at the door

Hello Heart
Are you in there my dear?
Can you hear me, my darling
Keep beating, I'm here
Hello Heart
Haven't felt you in years
Stop racing, my darling
I promise I'm here
I will hold you close
I will sing you to sleep
Take a breath, my love
I am setting you free
Hello Heart
It's been dark here, I know
Here's some sunlight
I promise your flowers will grow
Hello Heart
There you are, pretty dove
I am patching your wings
It's alright to feel love
I will hold you close
I will sing you to sleep
Take a breath, my love
I am setting you free
Do you feel it now?
Do you hear yourself beat?
Just listen deep
You are right where you're meant to be
