Greener Songtext
von Chonny Jash
Greener Songtext
Here′s that part again where your neighbour starts to mend their fence
And clean up all their woes and ugly things
And so you look on over trying not to meet their gaze
But before you get a good view
They're staring right back at you
Trying just as hard to see your own hue of green and blues
This 16:9 LCD screen
Seems to make success look easy
As if I even know what that means
So is it my fault that my yard′s a dark shade of asphalt?
When all I really want is to be seen
As a simple, lowly, sacred human being
Wherever this goes, I want you to notice
I want you to hear
I want you to know this song as a ringing in your ear
These thoughts sing a sad, sad melody
But then, even the manic can live happily
Misconceptions of intent will get me down
Oh, the truth is that I'm actually quite well (for now)
I'll tape a message to a stone
And throw it through your window
Just so you can finally see
That I′m not the one you should be envying
Wherever this goes, I want you to notice
I want you to see
I want you to know these shades that sit humbly in between your yard
Might not seem so heavenly
But I promise that mine is no better shade of green
Wherever this goes, whatever ensues
These songs are my own, these songs aren′t for you
But still, I'm so glad you′re listening
And clean up all their woes and ugly things
And so you look on over trying not to meet their gaze
But before you get a good view
They're staring right back at you
Trying just as hard to see your own hue of green and blues
This 16:9 LCD screen
Seems to make success look easy
As if I even know what that means
So is it my fault that my yard′s a dark shade of asphalt?
When all I really want is to be seen
As a simple, lowly, sacred human being
Wherever this goes, I want you to notice
I want you to hear
I want you to know this song as a ringing in your ear
These thoughts sing a sad, sad melody
But then, even the manic can live happily
Misconceptions of intent will get me down
Oh, the truth is that I'm actually quite well (for now)
I'll tape a message to a stone
And throw it through your window
Just so you can finally see
That I′m not the one you should be envying
Wherever this goes, I want you to notice
I want you to see
I want you to know these shades that sit humbly in between your yard
Might not seem so heavenly
But I promise that mine is no better shade of green
Wherever this goes, whatever ensues
These songs are my own, these songs aren′t for you
But still, I'm so glad you′re listening
