Seeds

lyrics

I wish I could feel, but I went numb years ago.
Months pass and I can start to move on just in time to fall apart again.
My heart branches out with little stems, dwelling in hearts that only pretend.

So take my hand and we can play pretend. For as long as you want, just don’t let this feeling end.

I've soaked up all that I can and my limbs are all bent from the time you tried to cut me down.
Well, my branches grew back and my trunk became stronger, but your words came at me like little hatchets and at that moment I fell.

Take advantage of me, utilize every little piece because I've planted seeds in your chest and I will soon grow tall again.
I will be the walls that you live in and those great oak floors that you stand on.
Just walk all over me! I don’t mind.. That’s what I was meant for.
I mean what else are friends for?!
I am an abandoned home.
Why can’t I have a heart of stone?
