lyrics

bloom, bloom, bloom- no more room to grow
can you please pick me?
from this view, so much overgrowth;
all my friends are weeds.
don't notice the dandelions,
they make themselves known;
go looking and you will find
they can spread on their own;
if you don't leave me behind
to run this zone- i swear

no one wants to be a part of it
everyone race to the end!
someone's out there telling you to quit
masquerading as your friend!
tell me where, tell me where...

to plant myself unsustainably
fertilize for shit
can there be something new to me?
or should i admit
to all my past crimes?
i've buried them in the dirt.
that branch is too high to climb,
i don't want to get hurt.
in order to feel fine,
assume the worst! or don't care

no one wants to be a part of it
everyone race to the end!
someone's out there telling you to quit
masquerading as your friend!
tell me where, tell me where...

oh, i hope that the wildflowers in pennsylvania
are just as pretty
are just as pretty as you

no one wants to be a part of it
everyone race to the end!
someone's out there telling you to quit
masquerading as your friend!
tell me where, tell me where, tell me where
