The Greenest I've Ever Seen Lyrics

I wasn't always a mess

It's like my life is a series of failed attempts

Like a landslide

On the inside

While the outside seems just fine

I wasn't always intense

I used to lie through my teeth

And you'd never have guessed

I was selfish

No perspective

And I've never forgiven myself

I spent the best part of the year

Searching for something better than here

'Cause I don't know

Exactly what I need

I spent the best part of the week

Watching the ground get pulled out from under me

Knocked off my feet

Down to my knees to find

The grass here is the greenest I've ever seen

I've always lived in my mind

It's like I don't fit in, though I try

Like Pinocchio or Frankenstein

Just call me Number Five

How do I feel? I feel alive!

I made myself my own victim

Killing any part of me that won't listen

The sound of the screams

Is music to me

It's like they're singing me to sleep

I spent the best part of the year

Searching for something better than here

'Cause I don't know

Exactly what I need

I spent the best part of the week

Watching the ground get pulled out from under me

Knocked off my feet

Down to my knees to find

The grass here is the greenest I've ever seen

I spent the best part of the year

Searching for something better than here

'Cause I don't know

Exactly what I need

I spent the best part of the week

Watching the ground get pulled out from under me

Knocked off my feet

Down to my knees to find

The grass here is the greenest I've ever seen

The grass here is the greenest I've ever seen

The grass here is the greenest I've ever seen
