The song is a 3 and a half minute “snap out of it!” to myself when I’m feeling low, unconfident or not myself. – Katie Munshaw
Indepth video about the song:
[Verse 1]
Take me to the roof
I wanna hear the sound
Of what a broken heart does when I fling it to the ground
Save for the waning moon
There's no one else around
I know that I'm asleep when all my teeth come falling out
And all the walls, come caving in
I make the jump from so high
And wake up in my bed, a song stuck in my head
From all the kids out on the stoops, they're singing
[Chorus]
Sunflower
Are you even really in there?
Sunflower
Are you even really in there?
Are you even really in there?
[Verse 2]
Ever since you left
I've wanted to drop dead
The words you said are scattered out onto the pavement
You find me in my room
Standing on my head
Because I like to let the blood rush to it
[Chorus]
Sunflower (Sunflower)
Are you even really in there? (Are you even really in there?)
Sunflower (Sunflower)
Are you really hanging in there? (Are you really hanging in there?)
Are you really hanging in there? (Are you really hanging in there?)
[Bridge]
How do I sleep without having a dream where I don't wake up?
Where the kids still sing, the pendulum swings, the grass pushed up
How do I sleep without having a dream where I don't wake up?
Where the kids still sing, the pendulum swings, the grass pushed up
How do I sleep without having a dream where I don't wake up?
Are you even in there?
[Chorus]
Sunflower (Sunflower)
Are you even really in there? (Are you even really in there?)
Sunflower (Sunflower)
Are you even really in there? (Are you even really in there?)
Are you even really in there? (Are you even really in there?)
Sunflower (Sunflower)
Are you really hanging in there?
Sunflower (Sunflower)
Are you really hanging in there? (Are you really hanging in there?)
Are you really hanging in there? (Are you really hanging in there?)

Speaking about the track to Dork in February 2020, frontwoman Katie Munshaw said:
‘Sunflower’ is a three and a half minute ‘snap out of it!’ to myself when I’m feeling low, unconfident or not myself.
‘Sunflower’ is sort of like a cousin to ‘Worms’. It was the first time I had really addressed that underground feeling, and this song really just stares back at that feeling, which I really like. I think, in a lot of moments, it feels really vulnerable and sad, but it’s also strong and it’s me recog...
