TOOTHPASTE

(album: GOODGRIEF - 2022)

Plant and sew until the field around my house
Let the spring showers clear my chakras out
'Cause once it's cut you can't just put it back in ground
But I don't really wanna pick my flowers now

She left me roses
Thorns I didn't notice
Ripped my white tee
Toothpaste clean bloody noses
So stains stay out of focus
Deep like swarms of locust
Soil that'll give me life
Can take the ones held closest

She left me roses
Thorns I didn't notice
It's the ones you hold the closest
That you gotta watch the most
It's a blessing and a curse
But I can't be the first to notice

Stains stay out of focus
White tee with bloody noses
Think I have too much emotion
Blessing and a curse
But I can't be the first to notice

Whoa, I can't be the first
No, I can't be the first
No, I can't be the first to notice
Whoa, whoa, no I can't, no I can't

Plant and sew until the field around my house
Let the skeletons dance around town
But I'ma dip once they start to hash it out
'Cause I ain't really got a bone worth picking now

She left me roses
Thorns I didn't notice
Ripped my white tee
Toothpaste clean bloody noses
So stains stay out of focus
Deep like swarms of locust
Soil that'll give me life
Can take the ones held closest

She left me roses
Thorns I didn't notice
It's the ones you hold the closest
That you gotta watch the most
It's a blessing and a curse
But I can't be the first to notice

Stains stay out of focus
White tee with bloody noses
Think I have too much emotion
Blessing and a curse
But I can't be the first to notice

(She left me roses)
(She left me roses)
(She left me roses)
(She left me roses)

Whoa, I can't be the first
No, I can't be the first
No, I can't be the first to notice
Whoa, whoa, no I can't, no I can't

She left me roses
Watch it decompose
It's nothing out of ordinary
You already know this
The ones you hold the closest
You gotta watch the most
Blessing and a curse
I can't be the first to notice
