i wish i was a flower
i'll wait, you'll see
there's suffering inside of me
but i could even wait forever
being a grand wallflower
it could get old
but as we grow older
you'll see
that i'm just happy to be living
but i can't bear the sight of watching
a living thing fall apart
and i just can't hold back this feeling
i have had from the start
it could get old
but as we grow older
you'll see
that i'm just happy to be living here
and i can't even picture
what your eyes have seen
and my mind can't stop running
not even when i sleep
you'll see no one'll fall apart
within my reach
and within our garden
you'll see my happiness can rise
as well
and if you're killing all the ants
that's fine
i'll take part
cause we could live without a little
pester from the start
but if you're killing more than that
including, or not, yourself
i just can't take part
cause it just grows old
as we grow older
you'll see i'm just happy to
be out of here
you'll see i'm not willing to go
any longer
without you here
