Flower Mind

I wanna be the girl smiling for no reason
First on the train, home for the season
Falling leaves caught in my hair

I wanna be the one talking at the table
Confident, willing and able
Telling stories with my hands

It looks so easy, picture-perfectly
A life in colour, a life that means something
How can I get there?

Hold on to my flower mind
Feed it water and sunlight
I’m not so dull, I can be bright
It makes a difference when you try

Everyday wake up and I wonder
How I change with this rain I’m under
Starts to doubt it’s all in my head
If I sat up, and drive
Could I leave the storm behind
For open skies?

Hold on to my flower mind
Feed it water and sunlight
I’m not so dull, I can be bright
It makes a difference when you try
