Emergence Collective feat. Kate Douglas, Matthew Dean Marsh, Raina Sokolov-Gonzalez & Sylver Wallace -
Perennials
Water & Light
Looking in the mirror realize you're faking
Every word you say and every choice you're making
Wondering who's inside you hoping to be waking up
Started as an itch but now it's growing stronger
You've been here all your life, you can't stay any longer
But no one's going to show you how to tell what's wrong or right
It's not inevitable that we grow
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
You step out on your own like it's a secret mission
Say you'll try to understand on one condition
That you won't have to give up on what you're wishin'
"Please," you say
The ones who made and love you they won't give their blessing
And friends who said they'd never leave are second guessing
And the weight of goodbye after goodbye is pressing down on you
It's not inevitable that we grow
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
You'll be running out of time before you even started
Picking up regrets the moment you've departed
All the time wishing you could be more light hearted
"Please," you say
Until one day you get so far you forget the reason
You started to begin with, every passing season
Adds another layer, you forgot how trees and flowers survive
It's not inevitable
It's not inevitable
That we grow
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
Every word you say and every choice you're making
Wondering who's inside you hoping to be waking up
Started as an itch but now it's growing stronger
You've been here all your life, you can't stay any longer
But no one's going to show you how to tell what's wrong or right
It's not inevitable that we grow
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
You step out on your own like it's a secret mission
Say you'll try to understand on one condition
That you won't have to give up on what you're wishin'
"Please," you say
The ones who made and love you they won't give their blessing
And friends who said they'd never leave are second guessing
And the weight of goodbye after goodbye is pressing down on you
It's not inevitable that we grow
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
You'll be running out of time before you even started
Picking up regrets the moment you've departed
All the time wishing you could be more light hearted
"Please," you say
Until one day you get so far you forget the reason
You started to begin with, every passing season
Adds another layer, you forgot how trees and flowers survive
It's not inevitable
It's not inevitable
That we grow
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
Water and light, water and light
Soil and shade, soil and shade
