Picking Flowers

(album: FRONTYARD - 2021)

Lights out
It's cold outside, you're not here
Oh, when I think
Of your face, it's crystal clear

And I say I'm fine but I'm lying half the time
And I say I'm cool but how could I be?
And I say I'm over it, not over it at all
Stuck in between it all

Picking flowers don't really mean much
If you're not by my side when I wake up
I'll leave the TV on
To make me feel less alone
You're asleep and I'm awake at midnight
Counting sheep until I'm outta my mind
Looking at pictures from
You and your camera phone
Pretending I'm alright

Thousands
Of train tracks but I can't leave, no
And I'd swim
But the ocean is far too deep
So you oughtta leave

And I say I'm fine but I'm lying half the time
And I say I'm cool but how could I be?
And I say I'm over it, not over it at all
Stuck in between it all

Picking flowers don't really mean much
If you're not by my side when I wake up
I'll leave the TV on
To make me feel less alone
You're asleep and I'm awake at midnight
Counting sheep until I'm out of my mind
Looking at pictures from
You and your camera phone
Pretending I'm alright

Pretending I'm alright, hey, hey
Pretending I'm alright
But I'm not really right, right, right
