Houseplant
I'm sat here
All day
Water me
Don't take the light away
The world's a gimmick
I couldn't hope to understand
What makes a houseplant good?
What makes them misunderstood?
I've seen things so fucked up
It would make anyone feel good enough
But I think there's more to life
Than running out of luck
And I think there's more to life
Than bluffing, yeah just bluffing your way through
I think there's more to life than
Working hard in a cage of your own device
And I think there's more to life
Think there's more to life
We're aiming high, tendrils to the sky
What else could a houseplant achieve?
Than to Be.
Disappointed
While wanting nothing
Oh what a great place to be
Where did I think that I would be when I turned 33?
What a great place to Be
Sat in a jar watching the sun go down
Don't avert your eyes
Baby don't frown
You did your best
You did your best
I think there's more to life
Than these four walls and the fifth one too
And I think there's more to life
Than surviving
I think there's more to life than
Just bluffing your way through
And I think there's more to life
Think there's more to life
When i'm stretched across my bed
Pictures slip inside my head
Say the future's frightening
Got to step outside to be struck by lightning
I thought there'd be more to do
Than stay inside
And watch your dreams come true
All day
Water me
Don't take the light away
The world's a gimmick
I couldn't hope to understand
What makes a houseplant good?
What makes them misunderstood?
I've seen things so fucked up
It would make anyone feel good enough
But I think there's more to life
Than running out of luck
And I think there's more to life
Than bluffing, yeah just bluffing your way through
I think there's more to life than
Working hard in a cage of your own device
And I think there's more to life
Think there's more to life
We're aiming high, tendrils to the sky
What else could a houseplant achieve?
Than to Be.
Disappointed
While wanting nothing
Oh what a great place to be
Where did I think that I would be when I turned 33?
What a great place to Be
Sat in a jar watching the sun go down
Don't avert your eyes
Baby don't frown
You did your best
You did your best
I think there's more to life
Than these four walls and the fifth one too
And I think there's more to life
Than surviving
I think there's more to life than
Just bluffing your way through
And I think there's more to life
Think there's more to life
When i'm stretched across my bed
Pictures slip inside my head
Say the future's frightening
Got to step outside to be struck by lightning
I thought there'd be more to do
Than stay inside
And watch your dreams come true
