If I Opened My Mouth

Hey flower

Would you tell me why so silent?

I know he picked you up

And breathed you air


Hey flower

Would you tell me why so blind?

I know he let you down

And turned soft petals in despair


Hey flower...

Would you tell me what do?

I know I don't talk much

And when I do, I talk too much

That's why I thought this time I would shut up.


Yesterday I believed

That the sun might start to sing

But right now I can't even see a star


Yesterday I believed

"Life gets better when you think"

But right now I might make you think too much.


Hey flower

I'm sorry that it hurts so bad

I'm sorry that you feel this way

I wish I could just take the pain away


Hey flower

Please don't ever doubt my care

I just don't know how to hold a faded treasure

I'm scared you would just shatter

In my arms...


Hey flower...

I just can't help but wonder

Is it too late

To be a friend

And bring you color?


Today I don't believe

In anything, except
You breathe...


...Just know I'd gladly listen to your songs.
