where we won't go Lyrics

Four hard leaves in a pot

Is what I got

Is what I've got

You left the sticker on the bottom

With the price tag stuck

I picked a vessel that I knew

Would make it easy on you

Forget about it weeks at a time

It'll still survive

What am I supposed to do with these roots

That I've overgrew

Every time I water you

It reminds me of where love won't grow

Do I look pretty

Or should I be cool

Do you like when I wear my sneakers

Or a short skirt after school

Running down the meadow

When I can't decide

But you've already struck a deal

And I'm left with an empty line

I've mourned a million places and faces

Who don't even know me

How can you crave a lullaby that you've never heard

Stacking footsteps in the grass

Four right turns in a row

My shoes are wet

From the places we won't go
