Fallen day, falling behind
I almost forgot where I left off
These mood changes are on everyone’s mind
But I say I’m alright
Day to night, moon to night
I don’t wanna be the only one who knows
That not every flower blooms
That’s sad, move on
Not every star shines like the sun
Sometimes you’ve gotta search really hard
Not everyone thinks this
They say I need to get checked
But I don’t wanna get fixed
Spoken melodies, unread poetry
Hard glass mixed with delicate rocks
Smooth jazz, I’m dimming the lights
Reading stories of people who are trying
Tryna forget how to fight
Night to day, sun to moon
Don’t you forget what we both know
That not every flower blooms
That’s sad, move on
Not every star shines like the sun
Sometimes you’ve gotta search really hard
Not everyone thinks this
They say I need to get checked
But I don’t wanna get fixed
Yeah, I don’t know if I’m real
I see things and know feelings
I’m an aquarius, it’s just how I am
Was born like this, and I won’t change
But not every flower blooms
Count my numbers, sing my songs
I hope I don’t forget where I came from
Write a poem, paint a wall
Sunflower they grow tall
Fire violets, so unique
Roses’ and tulips, they’re classics
I need to know what you say
Not every flower blooms
No, I’m not crazy, the sights a little hazy, that’s all
Not every star shines like the sun
Doesn’t make them less beautiful
I really wanna beat this
I promise I'll fix this
I hope I see you in my dreams
Maybe then I’ll know what the wind does
Not every flower blooms
That’s sad, move on
Not every star shines like the sun
Sometimes you’ve gotta search really hard
Not everyone thinks this
They say I need to get checked
But I don’t wanna get fixed
Yeah, I hope I’ll see this through
