Grow
from Songs That Gathered Rust by Raine Vivian
lyrics
So, this is how the story goes.
I'm not alone.
Just cigarettes, and stone.
I know, this was deep seeded long ago.
But I can't seem to let you grow.
Just gotta take it.... Slow.
Just go. Keep moving on and on and on.
Be strong. Try not to hurt anyone.
But you try so hard you try to remain the same.
I'm soaked head to toe.
Still trying to process every DROP.
Oh my, I guess that's just how it goes.
I'm not alone.
Just go, life goes on and on and on.
Be strong, and try not to help anyone.
Keep on. No matter how far you have withdrawn.
Be strong, because you can't save everyone.
But you tried so hard, you tried to remain the same.
This was deep seeded long ago.
But I can't seem to let you grow.
I'm not alone.
Just cigarettes, and stone.
I know, this was deep seeded long ago.
But I can't seem to let you grow.
Just gotta take it.... Slow.
Just go. Keep moving on and on and on.
Be strong. Try not to hurt anyone.
But you try so hard you try to remain the same.
I'm soaked head to toe.
Still trying to process every DROP.
Oh my, I guess that's just how it goes.
I'm not alone.
Just go, life goes on and on and on.
Be strong, and try not to help anyone.
Keep on. No matter how far you have withdrawn.
Be strong, because you can't save everyone.
But you tried so hard, you tried to remain the same.
This was deep seeded long ago.
But I can't seem to let you grow.
