Flowers 04:09
Flowers This is the end of conversation This is the end of blind attraction This is the end of the meaningful flirt This is the end of flowers This is the end of random meetings This is the end of hopeful smiles This is the end of honest abandonment This is the end of flowers This is the end of maybe tonight This is the end of wishful thinking This is the end of friends yet met And this is the end of flowers But the Sun still shines The Sun still shines The Sun still shines The Sun still shines

Hares on the Mountain (trad) Oh Sally my dear, it’s you I’d be kissing Oh Sally my dear, it’s you I’d be kissing She smiled and replied, ‘You don’t know what you’re missing’ Oh Sally my dear, I wish I could wed you Oh Sally my dear, I wish I could bed you She smiled and replied, ‘Then you’d say I’d misled you’ If all the young men were hares on the mountain If all the young men were hares on the mountain How many young girls would take guns and go hunting? If young men could sing like blackbirds and thrushes If young men could sing like blackbirds and thrushes How many young girls would go beating the bushe? If all the young men were fish in the water If all the young men were fish in the water How many young girls would undress and dive after? But the young men are given to frisking and fooling Oh the young men are given to frisking and fooling I’ll lturn me aside and attend to my schooling

Just Because 07:26
Just Because Just because you want it now Doesn’t mean you'll want it later Just because you say it now Doesn't mean you'll not regret it Just because you shine tonight Doesn't mean you'll shine forever Even if when stars are bright I'll be glad I can remember When you open like a flower When your eyes are burning bright When your skin is cool as fire When your pulse is beating mine Just because we have it now Doesn't mean it lasts forever Just because it makes no sense Just because it does no harm When you hold yourself so weightless When you bear yourself so true When there is no past or future When its only me and you Just because you want it now Doesn't mean it is not special Just because it feels good now Doesn't mean it was not meant to be…

Sorry / Headphones She's always in her headphones She's moving in her space Positiving filters essential to just get by I seen her when she's smiling And floating down the street Seriously upbeat avoiding It makes me think Of all the times i acted To try to please myself Disregarding others potential To be themselves. I wish i had been stronger But regrets count for shit This is not some long-shot confession That puts things right. And sorry is simply a word And I'm so tired There are no retractions enough To justify. My love. I used to leave her flowers I used to leave her books I used to leave her photographs Of images i took thinking of her I did it with intention I did it with a fear I did just in case i wasn't Missing the moment I never meant to make you feel Uncomfortably unsure I never meant to make you feel Apprehensive, at all. And Sorry is simply a word And I'm so tired There are no reactions enough To save my soul. Now. Outro Sorry, but apologies, don't mean shit.
