Oregon

(Album: Memos From Maine - 2022)

I've been living on the inside
Instead of a digital past life
Working things out by the moonlight
On my own
On my own

Sometimes I'll check in for a good time
But leave before smoke gets in my eyes
The lovely flames are a white lie
This I know
This I know

Cause, sometimes, I wanna buy a flower farm in Oregon
But if I heard your song on the radio
I don't know how I'd rationalize the giving up
Of parts of myself I never loved enough
To protect them from the world
So I'm blowing my brains out in a field of cornflowers

If a tree falls in the forest
Would you believe it if nobody saw it?
Does it matter to you that I loved it?
I don't know
I don't know

Sometimes, I wanna buy a flower farm in Oregon
But if I heard your song on the radio
I don't know how I'd rationalize the giving up
Of parts of myself I never loved enough
To protect them from the world
So I'm blowing my brains out in a field of cornflowers
